Today, we celebrate not just a milestone but a remarkable journey that showcases our shared vision, hard work, and unwavering dedication. As we mark Empire Teas’ 24th Anniversary, let’s take a moment to reflect on where it all began.
In 2000, with a small team of just 8 passionate individuals, Empire Teas was born. Our dream was to create something exceptional in the world of tea, and from these humble beginnings, we embarked on a journey of growth and transformation.
Today, we stand tall, ranked as the 2nd largest Ceylon Tea Exporter, with two state-of-the-art warehouses and cutting-edge machinery, producing premium teas under our own brands, Hyson, Thurson, and Tea Avenue. Our luxury cafe, Tea Avenue, boasts 7 locations across the island. Our idea is to franchise in Sri Lanka and abroad. With Empire Kenya in Mombasa and our brand Akina, we offer premium African teas, providing an authentic experience. Asvida, our Ceylon Spices brand, is set to be reintroduced as Ceylon Harvest. This journey would not have been possible without our remarkable team, past and present. Your dedication, resilience, and commitment have been nothing short of inspiring.
We are also profoundly grateful to our clients, consumers, and stakeholders. Your trust, support, and belief in our vision have been instrumental in our success. Thank you for standing by us through every challenge and triumph. Your partnership has truly made a difference.
Looking to the future, our focus remains on value-added products, embracing innovation, and maintaining our commitment to sustainability. As we adapt to new technologies and continue to push boundaries, teamwork and collaboration will be key to our success. As we celebrate today, let’s honor the past and embrace the future with enthusiasm and determination. Here’s to many more years of excellence, growth, and shared success. Thank you for your unwavering support.
Cheers to 24 years of Empire Teas and to many more!
