Company description
teapigs was set up by Nick and Lou in 2006 with a mission to get the nation drinking real tea and is now the UK’s leading super-premium tea company with a presence in over 40 countries. Trained tea taster and co-founder, Louise, selects only the very best quality whole leaf teas, whole herbs, berries, flowers and spices for our teas – real tea, no dust in sight!
The teapigs range is unrivalled; 34 award-winning whole leaf teas and herbal infusions that come in our special, tea “temples” (a roomy, biodegradable mesh bags that gives the whole leaves the room they need to infuse), a leading range of superpower matcha green teas and a range of functional “feel good” teas. Our teas have won over 90 great taste awards.
Our teas come in different formats to suit all business needs; tea “temples” and loose tea, BIG packs for foodservice, regular packs, tins and mini “piglet” packs for retailing and individually wrapped envelopes for self-service. We’re big on providing the best customer service out there and have a super POS, teaware and training offering – your baristas can be tea geeks too!
We’re committed to supporting the communities that bring us our tea and a donation to the Point Foundation in Rwanda with every pack of English Breakfast we sell (it’s sourced from Rwanda!). Donations improve the lives of vulnerable people in the area. We also match donations our customers make online and have raised over £175,000 so far.
Our everyday brew is Rainforest Alliance certified, we’re a member of the Ethical Tea Partnership and Sustainable Restaurant Association, our cartons are FSC certified and recyclable, our clear inner bags are biodegradable and we print using vegetable ink. We were the first tea company in the world to be awarded the A Plastic Planet Plastic-Free Trust Mark.
