The Ethical Tea Partnership (ETP), the global membership organisation dedicated to improving the lives of those working in tea, is pleased to welcome UK tea brand Typhoo back as a Member. Typhoo was previously an ETP Member for five years up until last year. Now, under new ownership by Supreme PLC since November 2024, Typhoo is reaffirming its commitment to responsible business and industry-wide collaboration.
