People Tree is a Fair Trade apparel company founded in 1991.[6] The Company no longer has a London base after laying off most UK staff in 2023[7] amid financial trouble[8] but maintains an office in Tokyo. People Tree Ltd, the UK business, went into liquidation in September 2023 with debts of £8.5m.[9] People Tree was one of the early proponents of Fair Trade and Ethical Fashion[10] and was the first fashion company to be awarded the World Fair Trade Organisation Fair Trade product label.[11]
