History
Tapal Tea was founded by Adam Ali Tapal in November 1947 as a retail outlet at Jodia Bazaar, originally importing tea from Ceylon.[6][7]
In 1975, Aftab Tapal joined the family business.[7] He introduced improvements in packaging to better compete with international companies.[7] During his tenure, Tapal diversified its imports by introducing Kenyan tea and expanded its product range to include both granular tea aimed at the urban middle class and more affordable tea dust for the rural areas.[7]
In 2004, Tapal expanded their operations in Saudi Arabia.[8] Tapal exports tea to 20 countries.[6]
