Background

Afri Tea & Coffee Blenders Ltd, founded in 1963, is one of Tanzania’s oldest and most respected food and beverage companies. Originally part of Unilever’s Brookebond Group, it became government-owned as Tanzania Tea Blenders Limited before being privatized in 2002 by the Mulla Group, which transformed it into Tanzania’s largest tea and coffee packaging company.
 
The company is known for its popular tea brands like Green Label, Kilimanjaro Tea, and African Pride, as well as Africafe, Tanzania’s most famous coffee. With a commitment to quality and sustainability, Afri Tea & Coffee Blenders continues to bring the rich flavors of Tanzanian agriculture to homes both locally and globally.
