Belgachi Tea Co. Ltd.

You can find the Belgachi Tea Co. Ltd. office over at 130 Cotton Street. It’s right in the middle of one of the busiest parts of Kolkata, so there’s always something going on outside our windows. The building itself has been around for a long time, and you can feel that history when you walk up the stairs. We spend our days surrounded by the smell of tea and the sound of the city. It’s a bit of a maze inside, with stacks of ledgers and samples of tea leaves everywhere. We aren't a big, polished corporation with shiny floors. Our office is a bit messy, and there’s always a teapot on the stove. We spend a lot of time talking to people from the tea gardens and making sure our shipments are on track. It’s a lot of back-and-forth, and sometimes things get a bit stressful when the weather doesn't cooperate or the transport is delayed. But we’ve been doing this for long enough that we don't let it get to us too much. We just take a sip of tea and get back to work. We don't have any fancy marketing slogans or big promises. We just know our tea and we try to do right by the people we work with. It’s a simple business, really, and we’re happy to be a part of it here on Cotton Street.
