To support the ideas presented in the text, and better understand the development, structure, difficulties and the main impacts caused by Fair Trade, it were made interviews with two exporting agents and four brazilians producers. The main result of this study was identified that, despite the development of Fair Trade as an alternative economic model, it faces important challenges that require initiatives to their development.
