Los Robles
Vinos Los Robles is 200km south of Santiago in the Curico valley, where wine production plays an important part in the local economy. The 50 strong co-op, along with El Corazon, a member of Los Robles, guarantees the farmers a fairer price for their grapes.

Through the support of Los Robles and fair trade, El Corazon has been given a loan to develop 20 hectares of new grape varieties and install an irrigation system. So, in the future, the farmers will benefit from increased income and Los Robles from a greater supply of good grapes - all helping to make a difference, from a unique fair trade product.

Las Lomas
The co-op was founded in 1939, following an earthquake that devastated this region of Chile. It now has 240 members, over 50% of whom are small farmers with less than 5 hectares of vines. With the benefit of fair trade the co-op has been able to develop a housing project and pay towards health insurance for winery workers and farmers. In addition, scholarships have been made available for some local children.
