Defining Tea
Tea is a beverage made from the processed leaf of a plant whose Latin name is: Camellia
sinensis.
Tea is a stimulant, a very mild stimulant, since it contains caffeine. It contains fewer
miligrams of caffeine per equal-sized cup than does coffee, but more than cocoa. Tea
contains small quantities of tannic compounds technically called polyphenols (not tannic acid
used in tanning leather), vitamin A, B2, C, D, K, and P, plus a number of minerals in traceused in tanning leather), vitamin A, B2, C, D, K, and P, plus a number of minerals in trace
amounts and also aromatic oils. The tannin compounds and essential oils are, in the main,
responsible for the flavor of tea, the color, the astringency (dryness), and the delightful
aromatics. These last two substances or compounds join forces to produce the high, medium
and base notes of tea that one experiences .These compounds which combine to produce the
delicate and sought-after nuance flavors of tea cannot be determined chemically by analysis
of the tea. All tea analysis comes out basically the same regardless of the variety or where in
the world the tea is grown. It is in the well-developed palate of tea devotees that this
decision of goodness is allowed to rest its case.

Types of Tea
1. Black Tea
This tea is fully oxidized and is very high in caffeine. There are 4 steps involved in the
production of this tea; withering, rolling, oxidizing and firing or drying.
2. White Tea
This tea is the unopened bud of the tealeaf. After the bud is picked, it is withered and the
moisture is allowed to evaporate and dry. It is very high in antioxidants and low in caffeine.
3. Yellow Tea
This tea is rarely found in the states. It is a green tea with yellow leaves that were
encouraged to turn yellow by the stir-frying stage of the tea making process.
4. Green Tea
This tea is high in antioxidants, Vitamin C and other vitamins and minerals. The freshly picked
leaves are allowed to dry, then are heated to stop the oxidation.
5. Oolong
The leaves are processed immediately after plucking. They are wilted in the sunlight, shaken
in bamboo baskets to bruise the edges, then shaken again and spread out to dry until the
leaf turns slightly yellow. There are two categories of oolong- fragrant and amber.
6. Pu ehr
This is a compressed tea produced only in China. This tea has health benefits reputed to aid
in digestion and weight loss. It also helps to lower cholesterol.

blossoms and herbs.

SITUATION ANALYSIS
MARKET SUMMARY
Tea is the cheapest and most popular beverage that served at both professional and social
gatherings all over the world. In Pakistan, it counted as a staple food item of common person
and an integral part of our culture and heritage. Due to these causes, Pakistan consumes a
substantial quantity of tea.
Tea is Pakistan's favorite hot beverage. Although efforts made to cultivate tea in the
mountainous areas, the projects could not achieve the desired results. Under this scenario,mountainous areas, the projects could not achieve the desired results. Under this scenario,
tea imports rose from approximately US$ 120 million in 1998-99 to US$210 million in 1999-
00, showing an increase of over 65 per cent. Its imports were US$173 million in 2002-03.and
still it is increasing.
The above figures show that the total tea market present in Pakistan is 150,000 tons and the
organized market show 80,000 tons and the unorganized show 70,000 tons. Here organized
depicts the market owned by the brands and unorganized depicts that this portion is owned
by the loose tea. The main competitor for organized tea market is the unorganized tea
market present in Pakistan.

MARKET SHARE PICTURE
Our focus is on organized tea market. Where different companies like UNILEVER and TAPAL
are holding the main market share. Some other companies also present in the market but
having very low share of the market.
Unilever Pakistan limited has 43% market share
Tapal private limited has 41% market share
Vital tea limited has 6% market share
Tetley has 4% market share
The remaining 6% belongs to other market share in the organized
market

Unorganized market also captures a good market share in the total tea market of Pakistan.
70000 tons out of 150,000 consumption is of unorganized tea.71percentage of total
population of Pakistan are living in rural areas. Due to illiteracy and lack of awareness, they
are consuming unorganized tea, which is mainly affecting the organized tea market. Due to
this, they are enjoying a very big market share of the total tea market.
Organized segment mainly depend on the imported tea. Mainly big players are importing
tea from different countries like Kenya, uk, Bangladesh. Last some year’s imported figures for
Pakistan is described in the chart below.
Unorganized tea is mainly smuggled from different neighbor countries of Pakistan. That’s why
it has a large proportion in total consumption of tea in Pakistan, which is 70000 tons of total
150000 tons.
