Assam Tea Company

You can find Assam Tea Company at Office Number L28 in Netaji Subhash Market. It’s a bit of a maze in here if you’re not used to it. We’ve been in this office for quite some time now. It’s a small space, filled with samples and paperwork. We spend most of our day talking to suppliers and local shopkeepers. The market is always loud, but our office stays relatively quiet once you step inside. We focus on getting good tea from the gardens to the people here. It’s a lot of back and forth on the phone. Sometimes the shipments are late, which can be a real headache. We don’t have a big showroom. It’s more of a place where we get the business side of things sorted. My uncle used to run things, but now it’s my turn. We try to keep the desk organized, but tea samples end up everywhere. It’s a messy business sometimes. People come in to taste different batches before they buy. We always have a kettle ready for that. Netaji Subhash Market is a good place to be if you’re in this trade. Everyone knows everyone else. We don’t spend money on fancy decorations. The tea is what matters most to us. We’re just regular people working hard. The market can be tiring with all the noise and people pushing past, but we are used to it by now. It feels like home.
