Why no Fairtrade label?
The black mulberries do not carry a Fairtrade label, but come from Fairtrade-certified smallholder farmers. The reason why the mulberries are not Fairtrade-certified is that there is unfortunately no Fairtrade standard for mulberries. For us at Pakka, however, this makes no difference, because we trade all products fairly, whether they have official Fairtrade certification or not.
Freshness guarantee
Vacuum-packed directly after production at the origin
The mulberries are fully processed on site immediately after harvest without any additives, washed, gently dried, graded and vacuum-packed in individual bags immediately after production. The removal of oxygen preserves the texture, flavour and nutrients in their original and healthiest form. In this way, we guarantee the best product quality right up until you open the bag at home!
Note: Once opened, we recommend storing in a sealed container in the fridge.

Silk Road sources its raw materials from two small farming cooperatives with around 1000 member families in the Samarkand region, along the ancient Silk Road. Silk Road is the newest member of the Pakka family. In addition to the Fairtrade premium, we empower the small farmers by pre-financing their harvest and giving them new access to the European market.
