The Palestine Fair Trade Association (PFTA) is a Palestinian national union of fair trade producing cooperatives, processors, and exporters. It was founded in 2004 by Palestinian-American entrepreneur Nasser Abufarha.

PFTA established the first internationally recognized standard for fair trade olive oil in coordination with the Fairtrade certification (FLO) in 2004, and introduced the fair trade concept to thousands of Palestinian farmers.
