New Fairtrade Hoodie arrives on time

Acorn have bought their own Fair trade hoodie into the country for 2008. Managing Director Clive Horlor comments that the limited supply in the UK has prompted the Company to take this step so they can continue to satisfy the Student market for fair trade clothing. It is a market that has grown rapidly over the last 12 months and this growth has seen supply problems.

The New Fair trade hoodie is priced very competitively with the standard hoodies. Colours available at the moment are Navy,Black & Grey, further colours will be added to the range later in the year. Visit the web site for more details.
