SIFE Consultants worked with Tim to develop his business by extending his fairly traded ethical brand and negotiating new retail opportunities within the university. As a result Tim made an additional net profit of £200.00, but perhaps more importantly provided paid work experience for a member of the long term unemployed; who then went on to pursue an interest in retail management through graduate applications. Tim also promoted awareness of fairly traded goods in the student community.
Business Ethics— Introduced experience opportunities as part of business model.
