Pukka Herbs Set for Growth Following New Tea Listings
Pukka Herbs is set for growth, announcing that supermarket Tesco is to stock three of Pukka's new herbal teas
Bristol, United Kingdom, July 18, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Bristol-based Pukka Herbs today announced that Tesco is to stock three of its recently launched herbal teas. The supermarket has been a strong supporter of Pukka since shortly after its launch in 2001 and has contributed to the company’s significant success.
Three Mint, Three Ginger and Night Time teas have joined Pukka’s overall best seller, Detox Tea, which has been listed for four years at Tesco and was three times gold award winner at the Great Taste Awards. These three new organic herbal teas have been created by Sebastian Pole, Pukka’s herbal director and co-founder. Offering unique tastes to consumers, they are expected to achieve the same strong run rate as Detox Tea.
The company’s herbal credentials and ethical ethos means that its products are becoming increasingly popular. Distribution for Pukka Herbs’ teas is now extensive, with stockists including Sainsbury’s, Waitrose, Morrisons, Fresh & Wild, Holland & Barrett and several hundred independent health stores across the UK. Pukka also has an established and growing number of international stockists.
Sebastian Pole said: “Consumers have developed a real taste for our teas. I love developing new blends and it appears that once our customers have tried them, they consistently come back for more. Given that our teas are absolutely unique, we’ve continued to see strong sales during a difficult period for the sector.
“Tesco has been stalwart supporter of our brand and we are very confident that our relationship will continue to be of great mutual benefit.”
Pukka Herbs is the organic herbal expert dedicated to helping people lead a healthy, balanced life. Based on the principles of Ayurveda, an ancient Indian healthcare philosophy, Pukka’s organic teas and remedies are 100% certified organic, fairly traded, sustainably cultivated and grown in the best possible conditions for maximum potency. Pukka Herbs is part of a new business movement that puts environmental and social wellbeing at its heart and is not only about profit. It has pioneered a much fairer way of doing business with its growers in India and Sri Lanka and customers are reassured that the proceeds of what they buy flow back to the farmers.
