JANDOVÁ, Lucie
The topic of this bachelor thesis is analysis of consumer behaviour in the field of Fair Trade products in the Czech Republic. It investigates the extent of awareness of consumers about Fair Trade products and analyzes purchase behaviour in this area of Supply which is dependant on the age of consumers. Younger generation is more aware of such designated products, however, doesn{\crq}t buy them up to such extent like the elder generation. Further it strives to point at the fact that consumers are not sufficiently informed about Fair Trade and about its goals. Therefore products are not being bought in such extent.

It also solves type questions: "What products are bought the most?", "Where products are bought the most?" or "Are the consumers satisfied with them?".
