About True Price Foundation

The mission of True Price Foundation is that every product has a true price, whereby basic products such as food remain or become affordable for everyone. We strive for transparency about and (voluntary) payment of true prices. Additionally, we aim to change policies and regulations that determine the outcomes of the market.

The foundation has three core activities: to develop and maintain the True Price Standard and ensure it gains authority for worldwide adoption, to activate governments, civil society organisations, trade unions, knowledge institutions and companies for the adoption of true prices, through the Global True Price Partnership and to mobilise the demand for true prices among consumers through the True Price Movement.
