Hey there, I'm Wayne, the founder of CHICHATEA.I come from a tea-making family. In 2016, leveraging our technical expertise and resources, my family established a tea factory in Sichuan, China. We now manage over 6,000 acres of tea gardens, with a facility covering approximately 108,000 square feet. Our factory processes up to 75,000 kilograms of fresh leaves daily, with an annual production capacity of 9,000 tons—ensuring strong and stable supply.
After a period of personal uncertainty, I chose to dedicate myself to tea. As I gained a deeper understanding of Chinese tea culture, I realized I wanted to share it with more people in the U.S.—to make better, fresher Chinese tea more accessible. With confidence in our production capabilities, the journey began naturally.
We launched CHICHATEA, our retail brand, for consumers who appreciate the depth and elegance of traditional Chinese tea.
In March 2025, we participated in the World Tea Expo as an Exhibitor. It was my first direct interaction with so many U.S.-based tea brands and buyers. That experience helped me clearly understand what the American tea industry truly needs—and it shaped the direction we’re now taking.
Our Modern Tea Beverage Series is designed not only for milk tea shops, ice cream stores, cafés, and restaurants, but also for everyday tea lovers and aspiring entrepreneurs. We provide high-quality, cost-effective loose-leaf tea with stable supply and consistent flavor.
Beyond quality tea, we aim to support tea-forward businesses in the U.S.—especially those developing modern Chinese-style beverages. We offer raw ingredients, competitive pricing, recipe systems, and SOPs to help them succeed.
Looking ahead, we will continue developing products tailored to the U.S. market and aim to make CHICHATEA a Chinese tea brand that truly integrates into American culture.
