Sustainability

We're already on the road to sustainability. Here's how we take care of the people and places at the heart of Myanmar Tea Leaf.

ENVIRONMENT

Always 100% organic

Chemical fertilizers, no pestcides. By going natural and using methods like intercropping, we’ve learned we can take care of the beautiful plantations that grow our tea leaves.

EMPLOYMENT

Creating opportunities

We take care of our communities. That’s why we do our best to create new jobs and support the families of our farmers. Once employed, we support their growth through management training, helping them build successful careers.

TRAINING

Supporting our staff

Our employees have access to skills and knowledge about health and safety, as well as training in HACCP and GMP. Through capacity building, we also make sure our teams are trained in organic farming at every stage, from growing to picking and pruning.

SUPPORT

Helvetas Myanmar

We’re working on our roadmap to support farmers. To achieve this, we partner with Helvetas Myanmar, which provides invaluable support with sponsorship, organic training and skills development.

Helvetas Myanmar pioneers a BioTrade project which focuses on supporting local people, communities and ecosystems, without conflicting with business interests. Through their support, we’ve successfully achieved internationally recognised standards for sustainability.
