Kazi Yetu
Fairtrade Tea by Kazi Yetu
Kazi Yetu was founded to change the way products are made and traded between Africa and the rest of the world. Commodities that are exported from Africa are mostly processed and packaged abroad, minimizing economic gain in the country of origin. To address this, Tahira and Hendrik founded Kazi Yetu in 2018 with a focus on products made 100% in East Africa to promote job creation for women and more equitable pay for farmers.
Kazi Yetu is the first of its kind to introduce high quality, traceable tea blends that are fully sourced, blended, and packed in Tanzania. Their teas are harvested in the Usambara mountains, a warm, mountainous climate that unlocks unique dimensionality and taste. Their flavorful, nourishing spices come from Zanzibar, which is known as the “spice island.”
each tin contains 20 compostable pyramid tea bags.
