CHICAGO (WLS) -- The Chicago Fair Trade is offering conscious consumers an alternative to Black Friday by opening its sixth annual pop-up shop.
The shop will feature more than 40 locally-owned ethical vendors under one roof. Shoppers can support local businesses and fair trade, knowing that the makers of all items have been paid a fair wage.
