Adagio Teas expands online and retail operations to Chile
Adagio Teas recently expanded its Latin American operations by establishing a retail presence in Chile. Mirroring its US activities, where the artisan tea company operates an e-commerce platform alongside several stores in the Chicago area, Adagio Teas opened two outlets in the capital Santiago together with a local web store. Both sites are located in upscale shopping malls and feature over 100 varieties of loose teas sourced directly from origin, as well as many popular tea accessories. Going forward, the company plans to open about two stores per year in Santiago and other big cities in a bid to tap into Chile's high per capita consumption and its deep-rooted tea culture. Wholesale services for local trade clients are also expected to become available in the near future.
