Queen of Green Roddick's 'unfair trade' started when she copied Body Shop formula
It's mid-morning. In the crowded town square of Ixmiquilpan, a dusty, poor settlement in the middle of Mexico, young Nanhu Indian boys play a game with a stick and string, while the girls and their mothers, their hair tied with colourful bands, look on. Suddenly, a mariachi band strikes up and half a dozen vans pull up. Out bounds Anita Roddick, the founder of The Body Shop. It's 1992 and these are the best of times for Anita - everyone calls her by her first name. She is an international legend, part Robin Hood and part Mother Teresa. She hugs the women and ruffles the hair of the boys. Although she doesn't speak Spanish, she chatters excitedly. The women understand little but they giggle shyly at the white princess with the hands that fly like birds.
