Fair Trade Organic Direct Suppliers

Hello,

I am starting and small tea house and am looking to source only fair trade teas. I am looking only at high quality, everyday, unflavored whole leaf teas and blends. Not going to be buying in large quantities with some orders at first, but hopefully later! :)

Naturally- i am looking for a few companies that are just suppliers and wholesalers and are not retailers (dont want to brand other peoples tea – Unless I know they rock as companies and selectors!)

Thanks for your help

Try Tealet, they can probably get you started.

Hello Cwyn,

Thank you, I will get in touch with them. Also, I see you are interested in Green Teas, have you tried the Kenya Zebra Sencha? I could send you a sample if you’d like!

Mindful Teas, this is not a fair trade designation but the sustainable farms cert. Does I’d farms and producers who are interested in both human and environmental welfare. http://sustainablefarmcert.com/certified-producers-2/

Scroll down to tea.

Thank you yyz! I will look closely at these lists, what type of teas are you interested in trying from these regions? I am happy to send you some samples.

I tend to like most Indian teas, Lately I’ve been into Ceylon’s, but I love Assam’s and Lopchu Darjeeling is one of my favourite teas. I drink teas from all the listed regions. I mostly drink blacks but I like most tea types. Good luck on your search.
