Download the latest issue of News from the Banana Front - our newsletter to keep you informed about Banana Link's Union-to-Union project.

News from the Banana Front is published as part of our Union-to-Union project, to keep you up to date with developments in the banana industry. It focuses on the opportunities for solidarity between workers in the banana exporting countries at one end of the banana supply chain and, at the other end, trade union members and consumers in the UK.

We can provide multiple copies of the bulletin for distribution within your union.
