Interview about Fairtrade with Aroma's CEO, Olle Bj\u00f6rkenstr\u00f6m<\/h2>\n

Can you satisfy a sweet tooth with a clear conscience? Yes, of course you can. Candy is good but can also do good when it comes to production and working conditions in the market. In Sweden, many people are involved in Fairtrade and the symbol has a high recognition factor. With an increasingly aware population, better sweets are produced.
\nAroma's candy series R\u00e4tt\u00e5Gott, which is both Fairtrade certified and contains natural colors, is an answer to this. 7 years ago, Olle Bj\u00f6rkenstr\u00f6m was asked to become CEO of Aroma Candy Factory. Aroma was founded in 1921 by Gottfrid Eklund. The first candy that was made was cream chocolate that Gottfrid cooked in a kitchen on Folkungagatan in Stockholm. Today, Aroma has two candy factories, one that makes all jelly candy in Skarpn\u00e4ck and one that makes chocolate in Torsh\u00e4lla. Aroma is best known for its jelly hearts, the jelly rat and the Fairtrade series R\u00e4tt\u00e5Gott, which Aroma started with in 2008.<\/p>\n

Olle replies:<\/p>\n

1. Why is Fairtrade important to Aroma?<\/h2>\n

Good and decent conditions are something that we sometimes take for granted in this part of the world. By producing Fairtrade products, you have the opportunity to influence what the conditions look like in countries where better and fairer conditions are needed. This contributes to giving, for example, sugar growers the opportunity for education and personal development. Of course, we want to be part of this journey.<\/p>\n

2. Why should you choose R\u00e4tt\u00e5Gott over other sweets?<\/h2>\n

First of all, because the candy tastes really good! Taste and quality are something we never compromise on. We create a product that is not only good, but also helps to do good for those who face much tougher conditions than we have. An additional dimension is that the candy contains natural colors and flavors and is manufactured in Sweden.<\/p>\n

About Aroma's Fairtrade range R\u00e4tt\u00e5Gott:<\/h2>\n

R\u00e4tt\u00e5Gott is Aroma's new quality range with carefully selected mixes of our most unique and popular candy pieces. Pieces that have been favorites for several generations and that reflect Aroma's history from 1921 until today, but with better content than ever and adapted for today's modern consumer.<\/p>\n

Aromas R\u00e4tt\u00e5Gott is not only yummy candy made with completely natural flavors and colors, it is also Fairtrade certified and thus tastes good in more places than in the mouth. And as if this were not enough, all our candy is made in Sweden.<\/p>\n
