Dalmia Tea Plantation & Inds. Ltd.

We've been here in Bidhan Nagar for quite some time now. Being out here in the Madapi post office area of Darjeeling, you get used to the hills and the way the weather changes so fast. Dalmia Tea Plantation & Inds. Ltd. isn't a fancy place with lots of glass walls; it's mostly just the fields and the processing spots where the work actually happens. People around here know us because we’ve been a part of the district for years. Every morning starts early when the mist is still hanging low over the bushes. It’s hard work, to be honest. We spend most of our hours making sure the leaves are handled right before they go anywhere else. Some days are slow, especially when the rain doesn't stop, and other days everyone is rushing around trying to get things loaded onto the trucks. Our office isn't anything special to look at, just a place where we keep the books and take a break. We don't really do the whole corporate thing with big meetings. It’s more about checking the soil and seeing how the plants are doing. If you come by, you’ll just see us doing what we always do. It’s a quiet life in this part of Darjeeling, but we like it that way. We just keep our heads down and handle the tea. That’s pretty much the whole story of who we are.
