About us
The FairPlay Movement is a not-for-profit initiative with the goal to end the predatory trade practice of dumping worldwide. FairPlay was founded in October 2016 and forms alliances with existing organisations and experts to formulate and promote strategies that could end dumping. These alliance partners are international, currently from the USA, Canada, UK, Ghana and South Africa. The campaign against chicken dumping in SA is FairPlay’s first campaign in South Africa. FairPlay has already managed to unite chicken producers, the SA Poultry Association (SAPA) and the Food and Allied Workers Union (FAWU) to oppose dumping. It has also recruited a panel of local and international experts to assist the government and other involved parties to formulate plans that will work. FairPlay is supported with funds and nonfinancial resources from the private sector. This enables FairPlay to pay for certain actions and in other circumstances utilise its supporters’ resources and assistance.
