New Chrome extension makes ethical brands easier to spot

EditorTVCs, News Make a Comment

AUCKLAND, Tuesday: Ponsonby creative indie agency has produced Find Fair, an ethical products Chrome extension launched by NZ non-profit outfit fair&good.

Fine Fair aims to highlight ethical products as you search and shop online.

Co-founder Dr Susan Maiava said: “Many Kiwis have a strong set of values but not every company shares them. A World Vision report showed the average household unknowingly spends between $30-40 each week on products that could support worker exploitation and modern slavery.

“Research told us New Zealanders want to shop ethically but 67% find it hard to know which brands are ethically produced.

“The sheer volume of ethical claims makes it difficult for people to know which ones are recognised certifications. The research and knowledge required is not within their grasp.


“An integrated campaign has been booked across outdoor, OnDemand, social and online.”

“Until now. Find Fair is a free Chrome extension that highlights ethical products online without any effort required by the user.”

Remade founder Clara McLaurin said: “fair&good’s mission is to make ethical shopping mainstream; to do this we needed a way for their knowledge around ethical products to find its way to shoppers.

“With so many of us buying online these days, the Chrome extension is a way to share this information right when people need it, as they do their weekly shop.”

To create Find Fair’s database, fair&good enlisted the help of other not-for-profits who share their values, including Just Kai, Trade Aid, Tearfund, SPCA, Fairtrade ANZ and B Corp.

Find Fair works in all the major online supermarkets including New World, Pak’n Save, Countdown and supie.co.nz.

An integrated campaign has been booked across outdoor, OnDemand, social and online through media partner, Rascal Media. PR is through Raise Communications.
