Tea Forte® Designs For Global Growth. Brand's Luxury Allure And Unique Positioning Steeps Rich Relationships.

CONCORD, Mass., June 23, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Tea Forté®, the global luxury tea company identified around the world as the exceptional tea experience, will spotlight its new positioning this week at the Summer Fancy Food Show (Booth 3962) at the Javits Center in New York. The revamped look is already being seen as a significant step in the company's effort to further its increasing domestic and international growth trajectory as a boldly-based luxury tea brand. The strategy was signaled initially with the introduction of the company's pyramid 23kt plated gold ICON Au Tea Infuser, an aesthetic evolution add-on to the Tea Forté core experience and appeal of the brand. 

"The company is thrilled to have the ICON Au Tea infuser featured in the MoMA Stores where items are honored for distinctive form, creative thinking, and clear function," said Stuart Avery Gold, the company's Chief Brand Officer. "Weaving the unique strengths of our curated tea collections and design-driven accessories into the fabric of our brand provides meaningful experiences for our sales channels and ultimately the consumer.  The luxury allure of the Tea Forté experience lies at the heart of their purchase. We recognize that the choice of our brand over another says something significant about who they are. "

"With tea now a fast growing $10 billion business in the U.S. and with Americans drinking 20% more tea than they did in the previous year, our vision is two-fold," added Tea Forté CEO Jan Hoorntje. "To carry on a meaningful special dialogue with those here and around the world that seek the ultimate tea experience, and to deliver on our brand's unique positioning within the markets that embrace it. Everything about our new narrative from logo to packaging materials is meant to emphasize a sensory rhythm unmatched in the tea industry."

The market for Tea Forté continues to expand with offerings enjoyed in over 35 countries where it is presented at leading hotels, restaurants, prestige resorts and high-end retailers. Its recent entry into the Global Travel Retail channel has resulted in increasing recognition and sales by way of an elusive and lucrative blend of quality, taste and style.

"A cup of Tea Forté is a celebration of nature, art and luxury," said Gold. "And while tea has always been more mass-market grocery than lifestyle, we will continue our focus on being definite, distinctive and part of the growing, high-end, lifestyle market."
