Innovation
Harris Tea was a pioneer in Specialty Private Label Tea. In the early 1990’s, when Private Label was viewed as generic tea, Harris Tea offered better specialty blends which filled a void in the market. Now, our facilities in California, Georgia, New Jersey, and the United Kingdom regularly produce innovative and creative blends.
