Exploring Iceland Fair Trade Policy 

Exploring Iceland is a tourism company that takes pride in good and fair trading with its local partners all around Iceland. It is transparent in its management and commercial relations and finds appropriate, participatory ways to involve employees and local partners in its decision-making processes. It ensures that relevant information is provided to all its trading partners.
Exploring Iceland trades with concern for the environment and animal welfare with small local partners and does not maximise profit at their expense.

We aim to maintain long term relationships based on solidarity, trust and mutual respect that contribute to the promotion and slow growth of the company.A fair price is one that has been mutually agreed by all through dialogue and participation, which provides fair pay to the partner.

Giving back to society - helping University Students
We are always trying to give back to society, for example by supporting University students from all over the world in their studies about Iceland, its economy, tourism industry and wildlife. Please see our blog page for an introduction to some of these students and their studies!
