Tea is a Ritual Enjoyed for nearly 5,000 years. The origin of tea is attributed to many a legend but one, which has stood the test of time, is that tea originated in China. India today is the dominant force in the global tea market and produces more than 31 per cent of the world’s total tea output. The tea trade in India is one of the largest contributors to the country's economy. Surprised? But, naturally, being the world's single largest producer of tea (an estimated in 870 million kgs, was produced in 1998!) requires a large network of tea producers, retailers, distributors, auctioneers, exporters, packers, etc. and playing these roles, from the gardens to the stores, is one of the largest workforces in the country 870 million kg. Being home to the world's best teas, it is no surprise that India is also one of the world's largest exporters of tea. And this is no mean feat, as the figures prove. Almost every tea-drinking nation in the world imports some variety of Indian tea! Some of the premium varieties available throughout the world are inevitably Indian (many from the gardens of Darjeeling), apart from the value-added Tea Bags and Instant Tea which are a hugely popular in the West, especially in countries such as the USA. In 1997, India exported an estimated 203 million kgs of tea all over the world.
