Ethical products for Conscious Consumers

This year, funkyGhandi.com was launched in the UK. Already, and in a short time, their competitively priced, organic, and fair-trade products; are finding their way to consumers and corporation alike.

In fact, rumour has it that their 100% organic cotton, ethical t-shirts have found their way to the wardrobe of mega super celebrity Madonna!

Time4ChangeFunkyGandhi.com (F.G.’s) is the brainchild of entrepreneur Naji Makarem, whose big heart (and acumen for commerce) beats to the sound of organic, fair-trade, and ethical consciousness all the way through.

F.G.’s mission statement is: “Bring Products To Market In A Way That Makes Sense. In A Way That's Good For People And Good For The Environment. To Offer Conscious Consumers An Ethical Choice. To Contribute To The Global Civil Movement’s Struggle. To Create A World That Makes Sense”.

Their Cotton Is SGS Certified As 100% Organic Cotton. SGS is recognized as the global benchmark for quality and integrity. They pay Fair Trade prices suppliers who are committed to getting an official FTO Stamp From IFAT.

F.G.’s T-shirts are dyed & printed in the UK. The dying technique is environmentally friendly leaving crystal-clear water at the end of the process. They also promote talented illustrators and pay them royalties on every t-shirt sold.

They bank with Co-operative Bank, and use the Phone Coop for their Telecom needs. Their energy suppliers are GoodEnergy, the only UK supplier of 100% renewable energy. And, they support Non-profit organizations by offering them 20% of sales they generate from referrals.
