Yogi Teas could be a great line for garden centres to stock and serve as they are not sold by grocery supermarkets.  "They sell through health food shops only so everyone supports the rsp, nobody is undercutting the price," UK Sales Manager Peter Otto told GTN Food Xtra at The Natural Products Show.

"We have also introduced our Sikh Santa to create a Christmas selection box with12 different varieties of Yogi teas, 2 of each tea, 24 tea bags in total, which could be an ideal Christmas line for garden centres."

Yogi Tea was started by a master of master of cundalini Yoga, Yogi Baji, and is a non-profit making organisation.  In the UK the range is totally organic.

Garden Centres can get supplies of Yogi Tea through wholesalers who service the healthfood trade such as Marigolds, Suma, Tree of life and The Health Store.

"It's a premium product, a pack of 17 tea bags, retails at £2.29." Peter added.  "From September we have a great offer for retail customers:  If they buy any two packets from the entire range they receive a free Yogi Tea mug, and the mugs are delivered to the retailers with their order."

At the show they were serving samples of Yogi Chai Latte, which is a pre-brewed liquid version that is mixed in a heater half and half with milk.  Now that would be good for centre restaurants who hold Indian food themed events or even as a regular offering of a Chai Latte to extend your tea offering.
