PG - Rainforest Alliance Certified Tea


We're proud to offer fully Rainforest Alliance Certified™ tea.

It's an accreditation that means our tea plantation in Kericho, Kenya isn't just producing great-tasting tea, it's making a real difference.

Covering 1,500 hectares of conserved wetlands and natural forests, Kericho is home to 75,000 people, 15,000 of which work on the plantation, benefiting from good working and living conditions and decent wages – things many of us take for granted.

We provide free housing and education for workers and their families. We also offer free medical care at our fully equipped hospital and across four health centres, including award-winning HIV/AIDS programmes.

For us, it's about improving the standard of living for workers while operating environmentally sustainable farming practices. We source 97% of the energy we use from hydropower and renewable eucalyptus forests. While numerous conservation schemes, like planting 870,000 trees to help tackle Kenya's deforestation problem, are helping to build a brighter future for all.

The positive results of our work are there for all to see, including 174 bird species flourishing in the local area.

These are just a few of the great things we've achieved in such a short time, as we continue to work closely with the Rainforest Alliance and introduce new ways of working.
