Founders Speak
Srinivas Ganadinni
Tea for me is a versatile beverage that helps kickstart the day, relax and rethink, bond, and have at any time. The past ten years of working in the tea industry have led us to discover new beverages, and the immense potential for growth in the F&B industry with variations of tea and coffee blends, beyond their regional speciality. We have built a recognised brand that offers products and services to customers worldwide. Our offices are in Hyderabad, India and Colombo, Sri Lanka, with production facilities and a trade representation office in the USA. Every tea leaf, coffee bean, spice, fruit, and flower used in our brews are selected and processed to ensure the enriching experience that only a well-brewed beverage can offer.
Co-founder
Madhuri Ganadinni
We are building The Tea Planet to redefine the way beverage is experienced by bringing different brews from all over the world and creating novel drinks. The premium tea leaves, coffee beans and spices used in teas are largely grown in India and Sri Lanka, which motivated us to source a large part of our ingredients indigenously. One of our remarkable successes is our range of bubble teas, inspired by Taiwanese beverages that we have customised to our markets. I have travelled across the globe to explore tea, its history, and the various beverages that use tea leaves. While on one such trip to China, we realized how important it is for the tea industry in India to crusade domestic production and focus on local manufacturing. All our products are manufactured and packaged in India and marketed and sold internationally.
Our History
How we grow
Our Passion
To create the most incredible hand-crafted beverages using ingredients from regions reputed for growing them. We take pride in the breadth of new and original flavours in our tea compositions. All our teas are handcrafted, taste-tested and expertly blended in small batches to achieve the best flavours making every sip worth and for the very best tea-drinking experience.
Our Vision
We want to explore and introduce the world to blended beverages that have universal appeal and offer a unique experience. We want to continue creating brews that cater to connoisseurs and casual beverage consumers looking for refreshments.
"Our cross-cultural experience helped us discover the suitable level of sweetness, flavours, and other ingredients as well as how to market Taiwanese-style bubble tea beverage mixes right for the Indian taste palate."
"Tea is a drink that Indians take for granted. It’s a segment of the consumer market which fits most comfortably into a stereotype and one which is quite difficult for new players to get into. This is what makes Madhuri and Srinivas Ganadinni’s venture Tea Planet unique."
"Srinivas Ganadinni, Founder, The Tea Planet, a franchise chain that sells various blends of tea found globally by sourcing the finest ingredients from all over the world. Experienced Founder with a demonstrated history of working in the Indian Tea industry with a passion to Innovate and entice tea drinkers worldwide."
