FairTrade@Home NZ: Supporting Local Fruit Growers & Fighting Fruit Waste

By July 14, 2025No Comments

FairTrade@Home NZ fresh fruit sourcing at Pete’s Natural

 

At Pete’s Natural Sodas, we’re passionate about creating 100% natural sodas made with freshly squeezed New Zealand fruit juice. Our unique approach, called FairTrade@Home, ensures that we pay a fair price to local fruit growers while helping to reduce fruit wastage right here in New Zealand.

What is FairTrade@Home?

FairTrade@Home means we source only the best fresh NZ fruit and support growers by offering them fair prices. This approach helps to reduce food waste and ensures sustainable fruit farming practices. When fruit doesn’t meet supermarket standards but is still perfect for juicing, we buy it, giving it a second chance to shine in our delicious sodas.

Why FairTrade@Home Matters

Fruit wastage is a big problem in New Zealand and worldwide. Wasting fruit wastes precious resources like water, energy, and labour. By choosing Pete’s Natural, you’re helping to cut down on fruit wastage and support local NZ growers who work hard to bring fresh fruit to your table.

Sustainability Beyond FairTrade@Home

Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond just fruit sourcing. We operate a solar-powered factory, use recycled glass bottles and paper labels, and drive an electric delivery vehicle. Every bottle of Pete’s Natural Soda is part of a full-circle effort to protect our planet.
