Supermarkets in Europe

[alan]

I'm trying to find out which are the best supermarkets in each country
for stocking Fairtrade products.

I know UK and Ireland, but I'd like to know about France, Spain,
Germany, Scandanavia etc

Any pics would be good to.

Hi Alan,

If you would go to Belgium, you would find several supermarkets
selling FT products:
Especially Delhaize with more than 40 products. Also Carrefour,
Colruyt, Lidl, Match, Spar, etc.

Sales of FT products are still not high enough, but let's hope that
with all the efforts of the campaigners in Belgium, this will change
in 2009!
We go for it!
