When you partner with Empire, you don’t just get a supplier, you gain a trusted collaborator with decades of experience in building successful tea brands around the globe. We turn your vision into a market-ready product, handling everything from sourcing to shipment with heart, precision, and unwavering commitment.
Guided by a third-generation tea master, our work is rooted in deep knowledge, craftsmanship, and a lifelong passion for tea. Whether you’re launching a new label or refining a legacy, we’re here to help you create a product that stands out, because when your name is on the box, nothing but excellence will do.
Tea Sourcing
We go to the source, literally. With direct access to premier tea auctions in Sri Lanka and Kenya, we handpick teas that meet your exact profile and quality expectations. Through long-standing relationships with some of China’s most esteemed and trusted suppliers, we carefully select teas that reflect your precise taste, uncompromising quality, and unique vision.
Our experienced tasters curate samples tailored to your brief, and nothing moves to production without your approval. Every batch we choose is more than just premium. It’s personal, ensuring your blend delivers both flavor and integrity.

Our in-house design and product development teams work closely with you to develop packaging that reflects your brand’s essence, whether it’s elegant tins, eco pouches, or retail-ready cartons. Every detail is fine-tuned to fit your market, guided by deep market insights, creativity, and a passion for storytelling through design.
