Stellar Winery

Stellar Winery is a wine producer located in Western Cape, South Africa.

Stellar Winery was the first organic vineyard and cellar operation to receive the highly sought after Fairtrade accreditation. Fairtrade companies undertake to empower economically disadvantaged workers and ensure that a fair price is paid for the product along the whole supply chain.

Both farm and cellar staff are transported to and from work. Families receive health care and the permanent services of a community worker. Workers receive free housing, electricity and water and all schooling and child-care facilities are subsidised. A percentage of the wholesale price of the wine is paid directly back to the Stellar Fairtrade Workers' Trust. The Fairtrade umbrella bodies in the various export destinations supervise this process.
