Certification news

We recieved our Utz certified certificate for tea production this month. This is the latest development in our participation in the Utz certified pilot scheme for tea.

The Satemwa Smallholders recieved their FairTrade certificate in August. They are very excited about this and have been working with Satemwa management for some time to achieve this standard. The smallholders now have a VSO who is helping them to navigate the complexities of the FT standard and ensure that they continue to meet the improving standard. Satemwa is now looking for buyers who could partner in marketing this tea.
