Blends For Friends Ltd
Maggie Parkinson's Company Details
Blends For Friends Ltd is a bespoke white labelling ingredients company for the hot beverages industry. Based in the heart of Kent, Blends For Friends was set up in 2006 by master tea blender Alex Probyn in order to provide the world with highly personalised and custom-made tea blends to give as a truly unique tea gift for tea lovers. This bespoke and custom-made tea ethos still remains today, although what we're able to do is significantly more impressive…Alex joined the tea industry in the late 90s as a trainee tea taster and after five years of intensive training was considered a master tea blender. Although this vocation provided Alex with world-class tea training and plenty of opportunity to work in the countries of origin, the types of tea he was able to blend were limited to more commercial, large scale options and this was frustrating to Alex as he knew there was a whole world of tea that most people were completely unaware of. This was enough to prompt Alex to set up Blends For Friends.Back in 2006, the entire business was based around creating bespoke tea blends to give as highly personalised tea gifts for individuals. It soon became clear that the world had a rapidly growing thirst for high-quality, custom blended teas and Blends For Friends was able to scale-up the operation to provide private label tea blending and packing services for an ever-widening array of customers of various sizes all over the world.Today the business consists of 30 people in purpose-built facilities of 25,000 square feet. We are able to source and blend teas, herbs and spices from all over the world, manufacture pyramid tea bags and single-serve matcha sticks and also pack into any format of retail carton, jar or pouch. We offer a totally unique service for all our customers with bespoke tea consultancy and support in providing the best quality product that is most appropriate to their needs.
