Tea is a product that has a strong industrial base in East Africa.
It’s been going for years, meaning that many companies have emerged and there is a pretty competitive landscape.
In this episode I speak with Toby, Operations Manager at Chai Tausi in Tanzania
We discuss the supply and sales network that they have in place, the best conditions for growing tea across the region and the considerations when it comes to making their blend.
I’ve spoken to a lot of high tech companies on my tour in East Africa but this is a proper old school business that we chat about.
I hope you enjoy it as much I did.
