Mendo Maté Power It Approved® prides our selves on making positive change and supporting the future development of communities by creating novelty products based off our brand standards. We strive to show there is a better way to conduct business through 100% Organic, Good-Trade, Non-Machine Productions, Living Wages and The Mendo Maté Guarantee. If a product can not meet our standards we do not sell it. So you do not have to question if a product is ORGANIC or adheres to the goals of a GOOD-TRADE, that just comes standard...

 

USDA Certified Organic Products: This means 2 things to Mendo Maté, LLC. One is our commitment to the environment and the second to our kids. When you see the USDA seal, it means the product is 95% or more certified organic. To us that is not good enough. So we make a pledge of 100% certified organic. If it is not 100% organic then we do not sell it.

Good-Trade: In the eyes of Mendo Maté there is nothing like trading with our principal partners. If we do not know the farmer or the manufacturer then we will not carry the products. Long ago we made a commitment to know our friends in each industry and to create well funded production lines and that is what we continue to do to this day. If we can not verify the wages and working conditions for our products we do not buy them.

None Machine Productions: As the name implies, some of our products are none machine productions. This means that through the production of our product it never touches a petroleum based machine. From the planting of the seed to watering all is done by hand on small estates. Once these products have been harvested by hand they are packed, some are roasted and then placed in the store for our customer. Mean while the only pollution produced through the product is that in the shipping process its self. 

Living Wage: We carry a Living Wage standard into our office and around the world for our employees and contractor. It is very important that humans operate from a stand of strength and value and not fear. We strive to provide this with in Mendo Maté.

PayPal Verified: The Mendo Maté Bazaar uses only PayPal to process your payment both via Paypal email and Credit Card. We feel strongly about your purchasing security and strive to make sure your information is never vulnerable.

The Mendo Maté Guarantee: It is really simple for us. If you do not like your product or service then just return it for a product or service that you do like. We have a no questions asked return policy and are committed to your happiness. If you are not happy then we are not!

* Carbon offset distribution.
* Recycling on every level.
