Minney was born in Britain in 1964 to a Swiss mother and Indo-Mauritian father.
In 1990, Minney moved to Tokyo with her husband where she learnt Japanese before working for a publishing company, Amnesty International, and the Body Shop.
She was the founder of Global Village which she set up in 1991, and the founder and former Global CEO of 24 years of People Tree, a pioneering sustainable and Fair Trade fashion label.
She is also a spokesperson and campaigner on Fair Trade and ethical fashion.
In 1991, Minney founded Global Village, a non-governmental trading organization in Japan.
She began working with two students from Yokohama University, initially publishing a free leaflet that provided consumers with environmental and organic information and listings, and later also selling fair trade products.
In 1995 Fair Trade Company was formed as a limited company in Japan by transferring the fair trading activity of Global Village.
A shop was opened in the Jiyugaoka district of Tokyo and in 1996 the business became a member of the World Fair Trade Organization.
She initiated World Fair Trade Day in 1999, which is endorsed by the World Fair Trade Organization and their members and celebrated on the second Saturday of May each year.

She worked for Creative Review magazine for four years and created her own social marketing consultancy working with New Statesman and Friends of the Earth.
In 2000 People Tree was launched by Fair Trade Company in London to establish fair trade fashion in Europe.
In 2014 People Tree became the first company to be awarded the World Fair Trade Organisation Fair Trade product label with an international sales turnover of £8m.
WFTO labelling is intended to guarantees People Tree's compliance to the Principles of Fair Trade, covering fair wages, working conditions, transparency, capacity building, environmental best practice, gender equality and setting standards for conventional fashion companies to improve their supply chains.
