Great Eastern Tea Industries Private Limited

You can find us at Eastern Tea Corp on Shiv Mandir Road in Siliguri. The address is a bit long, Hno 463/221/756/13, but local people know where the Madan Mohan Goel building is. We are right in the heart of tea country here in the Darjeeling district. We handle a lot of tea every week. The warehouse is a big space with high ceilings and rows of tea chests stacked up. It is always a bit cool inside, which is good for the tea leaves. We spend our time grading the tea and making sure it is stored properly. There is a lot of lifting and moving boxes around during the day. We do not have a bunch of managers in suits. Most of us are in old clothes because the work is very physical. We have been part of the Siliguri tea scene for a while now. The road outside is often busy with trucks taking tea to the auction centers. We listen to the radio and drink a lot of tea while we work. It is not a complicated business, but it requires a lot of attention to detail. We check the moisture levels and the color of the leaves carefully. Sometimes a shipment is delayed because of a landslide on the hill roads, but we just adjust our schedule. It is a practical, everyday sort of job. We are just glad to be working with something as important as tea.
