LIPTON Teas and Infusions

LIPTON Teas and Infusions stands as the world's largest tea business, built on a legacy of over 150 years of expertise in blending teas and infusions that delight consumers globally. The company's origins trace back to 1871 when Sir Thomas Lipton founded his grocery business in the United Kingdom, with the Lipton tea brand officially established in 1890. While the Lipton brand has a long and storied history, the current entity, LIPTON Teas and Infusions, was formed in 2022 following its acquisition from Unilever by CVC Capital Partners. This strategic move established the company as a standalone leader in the tea industry, dedicated to a single-category focus to foster growth, value, and a greater positive impact on the world. Headquartered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, the company operates in more than 100 countries, boasting a remarkable portfolio of over 30 world-class brands, including iconic names like Lipton, PG Tips, TAZO, Pukka, and T2.

The core purpose of LIPTON Teas and Infusions is to cultivate a world of well-being through the regenerative power of plants. This mission is deeply embedded in their operations, from the tea estates to the final product. The company is committed to driving the entire tea industry forward by investing in innovative and sustainable practices that deliver responsible growth. This includes a keen focus on meeting the needs of customers and consumers, protecting the environment, and making a positive impact on the lives of people across their supply chain. With 11 production factories on four continents and tea estates in three countries, LIPTON Teas and Infusions reaches hundreds of millions of consumers daily. Their commitment to sustainability is evident in their efforts to achieve net-zero emissions and their partnerships with organizations like the Rainforest Alliance. The company's values—Grounded in reality, Respectful for all, fostering Ownership, and Winning together (GROW)—guide their mission to create value for all stakeholders, from farmers and employees to partners and shareholders, ensuring a healthier and more sustainable future, one cup of tea at a time.
