About Us

Our Story So Far...

Tea-Direct.co.uk has been selling fresh, loose leaf tea online since 2017, with the aim of supplying the largest range of teas and infusions direct to your door, but our history goes back even further.

Where it Started…

Co-directors James and Lewis first met back in 2002 when they worked in retail and technical roles for a large retailer. They quickly envisaged an opportunity to take their skills and create their own business, which they did in 2003. Their first business grew in success throughout a decade before being merged with a competitor in 2014, but long before this the two had been looking to branch out into a new and exciting industry. The merge therefore allowed them to focus 100% on a new business that had been percolating since 2007 – Coffee-Direct.co.uk.

As Coffee-Direct.co.uk grew, new possibilities began to open for us, and we were soon able to add to our range a selection of quality loose-leaf teas. The popularity of these teas continued to grow, until it became clear that a new way direction was needed.

So it was that in 2017, an exciting offshoot of Coffee-Direct.co.uk was created - Tea-Direct.co.uk!

Where We Are Now…

With Tea-Direct.co.uk we have been able to apply our passion for coffee to the rich and vibrant world of tea, offering our customers an extensive range of hundreds of spectacular loose leaf teas.

Our popular tea subscription service saves our customers time and money, with freshly packed tea arriving direct to their doors, while our range of teas and tisanes continues to grow. We now offer teas from China, Japan, Sri Lanka and India, black teas, green teas and white teas, rooibos and Earl Grey, herbal teas, flowering teas and more, bringing a fantastic range of diverse flavours and aromas to our customers.

Since 2017, Tea-Direct.co.uk has continued to grow and develop a great customer base of tea aficionados and novices alike, and because we have taken the decision to work remotely from home offices, we’ve been able to keep our costs low and pass on these savings to our customers. We have also been asking our customers to offer their reviews of our teas and of our great service, so that as of 2022 we are thrilled to have received over a thousand customer reviews!

Looking Ahead…

We’re continuing to innovate and grow, but we never lose sight of the important things - providing our customers with a seamless, simple and speedy journey when ordering from our range of delicious, fresh loose leaf teas!
