Housemaids were hurrying homewards with their purchases for various Gallic breakfasts, and the long sticks of bread, a yard or two in length, carried under their arms, made an odd impression upon me.
– Louis Charles Elson (1898)
Yes, I think it is nearly phrased the same in the link somewhere. I guess they also have to consider that it doesn’t get much more expensive than it currently is. If I remember correctly they also want to be an example for other brands, and lead the way for other brands to choose more ethical materials.
The ‘Fair’ in Fairphone relates to their practice to produce the phone as fairtrade as they can. Mind, it is not perfect and I believe they don’t state that it is fully fairtrade either. This often gets confused that it is fair of them to make it repairable.
