	IBD IBD Orgânico (Brazil) Brazil · Tier 2 Trusted	Orgánico SAGARPA / SENASICA (Mexico) Mexico · Tier 1 Gold	Kilimohai Organic Mark (East Africa) East Africa · Tier 2 Trusted	Fairtrade International Global · Tier 3 Specialty
What it means	South America's largest organic certifier. IBD certifies under Brazilian, USDA NOP, EU, and JAS standards — a single-stop certifier widely used across Latin America.	Mexico's national organic mark, administered by SENASICA under the Ley de Productos Orgánicos (LPO).	The East African regional organic mark, under the East Africa Organic Products Standard (EAOPS). Used across Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda, and Burundi. Administered through Participatory Guarantee Systems coordinated by KOAN (Kenya Organic Agriculture Network).	Certifies fair prices and conditions for producers in developing countries — not organic, not environmental. Common on coffee, cocoa, sugar, bananas, tea.
Scope	Several categories	Food	Food	Food
Established	1990	2006	2007	1997
Inspection	Annual on-site, IFOAM- and ISO 17065-accredited	Annual on-site, SENASICA-accredited	PGS peer-review (annual)	Annual on-site by FLOCERT (independent of Fairtrade International)
Residue testing	Required	Required	Risk-based	Not for organic — Fairtrade alone doesn't test residues
Guarantees	Multiple-standard certification: Brazilian (SisOrg), USDA NOP, EU, JAS, Demeter. Annual on-site inspection.	≥95% organic ingredients per LPO. Annual on-site inspection by SENASICA-accredited certifier.	Compliance with the East Africa Organic Products Standard (EAOPS). Peer-review inspection via Participatory Guarantee Systems (PGS). Regional cross-recognition across the five East African Community member states.	Minimum price floors for producer cooperatives. Fairtrade Premium paid into community-development funds. Bans on the worst forms of child and forced labour. Producer organisations must be small-farmer cooperatives or hired-labour plantations meeting standards.
Does NOT	A single product may carry IBD plus a country-specific organic mark — IBD itself isn't the regulatory mark in any of those markets, just the accredited certifier.	USDA equivalence is granted product-by-product, not blanket.	PGS-based — the inspection model is community peer-review rather than third-party. Strong for domestic markets, less recognised by the EU/USA than third-party schemes.	Doesn't mean organic — many Fairtrade products are conventionally grown. A separate Fairtrade-Organic dual certification exists.
