Best Answer

Fair trade is important because in many poorer countries, prices are so low that workers are unable to earn enough to live off of. Also, some goods are produced in ways that are exploitative to workers, or ways that are unsustainable environmentally, damaging to the environment in the communities in which the goods are produced.

Fair trade does not instantly solve all these problems, but it aims to potentially address some of them in ways that conventional trade does not.

Why Should all global brands be forced to become fair trade?

No one should be "forced" into Fair Trade operation. However, they should all be strongly encouraged to do so. Most important, though, is convincing the end consumer that they should not purchase non-Fair Trade products. If there is no market for non-Fair Trade items, those producers will not succeed in their business.
