Článek hodnotí české a slovenské cukrovarnické společnosti v procesu transformace a zrušení kvót na evropském trhu s cukrem. Hodnocení je provedeno z pohledu platebního chování, finančního zdraví a ...kondice. Cukrovarnické společnosti měly v Česku a na Slovensku před začátkem roku 2019 a následně v roce 2020 malou pravděpodobnost bankrotu. Udržely si dobrou platební morálku vůči svým odběratelům. Jednalo se o finančně stabilní subjekty. Negativní vliv může mít horší hodnocení odvětví a výrazné změny na trhu s cukrem. I nadále je vysoká pravděpodobnost udržení výroby cukru na stávající úrovni, udržení finančního zdraví, platební schopnosti a platební disciplíny v následujícím období.
Fair Trade connects developed countries, where greater sustainability and justice is being sought, with the needs of developing countries where economic and social changes are needed most. It enables ...citizens who are consumers to favor the producers of poorer countries. This is a manifestation of humanity that helps producers to escape acute poverty and lead dignified lives. Fair trade is becoming a very “hot” topic, not only for businesses but also for consumers, who are trending towards buying Fair Trade products.

Methods of analysis, synthesis, deduction, and comparison are used to establish the current situation of Fair Trade in Slovakia and the Czech Republic, as well as the perception of Fair Trade held by Czech and Slovak customers.
