The growth in tea sales in the convenience channel has mainly been driven by home snacking and home lunching - both up by 14% - with people being encouraged to stay at home and work from home during the pandemic. There has also been an increased trend towards treating tea as an ‘occasion’ with value and volume up nearly 7% and 4% respectively. With more speciality teas out in the market, tea is fast becoming an essential part of the daily health and wellness routine. Getting the right balance between mass market consumption and niche interests will ensure you optimise your tea sales.”

The information from Partners for Growth was very useful and something which I implemented across a range of categories.

We have since seen an increase in sales of approximately 20-25% which is really positive!
