Tea Guys opens new facility to cope with growing demand
Tea Guys, a specialty tea importer, blender and wholesaler, opened a new facility in Whately, MA to increase production and storage capacity. The new 10,000-square-foot facility, about three times larger than the previous one, will house more inventory and new tea bagging machines with a capacity of 3,000 teabags per hour. The new space will also allow Tea Guys to expand into other areas of the tea market, such as Keurig K-Cups, cold brew teas, pyramid-shaped tea bags and tea concentrates. The increased productivity is expected to double the number of full-time employees from 10 to 20 over the next six months.
