CEYLON TEA

We at James Finlay & Co (Colombo) PLC. a member of the Swire group of
companies have come to know that you are a leading company importing  tea.

We wish to supply you with the best quality Ceylon tea. I trust you will
give us an opportunity to share are views.


Our company has been in the tea business for well over 110 years and is
presently exporting around 9 Million Kilograms per annum. We mainly
concentrate on value added exports such as tea bags, packets etc., and
export tea to Middle Eastern countries as well as to U.K., Europe, Japan,
and Australia etc. We have been within top 10 exporters of value added teas
from Sri Lanka over the past several years.

 Our factory is equipped with the latest IMA C 27 Staple-less String and Tag
machines, 10 IMA C 23 String and Tag Tea Bag machines (of which 9 are
capable of being converted to pack envelope bags) and 3 IMA C 21 machines
with 1 Universal pack VBU machine, two carton formers and 3 BFB
Over-wrappers.


Our company is the largest exporter of Tea Bags to Japan, which position we
have held for the past 4 years.  This achievement would indicate the high
level of quantity and quality standards we maintain. We concentrate mainly
for hygienic teas as we are ISO and HACCP Certified .We are very conscious
about the quality of the teas we supply.

Whilst we focus mainly on exports in the value added form, we also do export
tea in bulk, which accounts for approximately 30% of our total volume.

Our tea's range from Ceylon black tea, Flavoured, Herbal varieties ect.,
enabling you to call us the One stop Tea shop in Sri Lanka.


Our product range also includes Green Tea, which is manufactured at our own
factory with modern machinery fully geared to manufacture Japanese and
Chinese types under one roof. Our factory is also certified to manufacture
Organic Green Tea and can provide the Control Union Certificate (SKAL).

times. We intend to be your number one supplier of good quality teas.
