OUR PEOPLE
A good cup takes time to steep, a good community takes time, effort and perseverance
to build. As we are moving forward in our freshness journey we intend to do it together;
irrespective of gender, race, age, culture, and way of living.
We provide necessary training and purchase from local vendors and suppliers
to foster a thriving community. More than 60% of our resources(raw material &
technology) come from local suppliers in West Bengal with internationally
recognized product certifications.
Teabox also encourages women-owned companies. We source 10-24% of our
purchases from companies that are majorly owned by women.
We work with Reyso, a Darjeeling-based NGO that helps generate
employment for women working in tea gardens.
To ensure the well-being of the people working in estates and drive awareness
of good hygiene for rural communities of Darjeeling, we have collaborated
with Broadleaf India, a United States health and education NGO.
