An exciting journey

“Many years ago, a couple of old IMA machines began the adventures of TeaPak. Shortly after, we decided to turn this adventure into a solid business, one which we still believe in and count on today. It was a choice made with Passion. A Passion which, founded on our deepest values, has allowed us to achieve the incredible results that we deserve to celebrate today. Our success is the result of the many choices we have made together, day after day. We have learned that growing means change, even though changing may seem difficult. Yet we know that these changes have always been aimed at creating wealth, culture and well-being both for us and for where we live. We have decided to share the Values that we have always embraced, a life approach that always brings us back to our motto: “Doing good is good and makes us feel good”. We are doing good thanks to the psycho-physical benefits of our herbal teas, which are now appreciated throughout Europe. Doing good together with volunteer and group activities that unite us even more. Doing good for the environment, to leave a better world. Doing good by supporting our professional and personal growth with targeted study and refresher courses that keep us constantly up to date with the times. WE together, have always proudly tried to put People at the center, demonstrated both in daily activities and in the large projects that we have undertaken. Thanks to us all. Thank you because together we truly believed in the strength of the ideas that have allowed us to get here. Thanks to the ideas that will allow us to get where we choose to go together. We are and will be a source of inspiration for many. Thanks TeaPakies, you are unique!”
