How did a Zimbabwean company successfully expand its business from ordinary beverages to flavored teas with the help of Taizy tea packing machines? This is closely related to the collaboration between the two parties.
Our client possesses exceptional foresight, enabling him to understand market changes. By choosing trustworthy suppliers and partners, he successfully introduced his products to the local market and even expanded into overseas markets.
Client background: Expanding from liquid beverages to flavored tea drinks
Our client is a well-established beverage manufacturer located in Zimbabwe, producing liquid beverages, bottled water, and specialty smoothie drinks. Given the growing demand for diversified beverage products in the local market, the company decided to venture into the flavored tea drink sector as a new growth area.
Unlike many first-time equipment buyers, this client had a clear business plan and a registered company with detailed requirements for specific technical information, including:
- Tea bag weight specifications
- Tea bag dimensions and packaging format
- Customized power supply standards
- Production expectations
Their goal was to invest in a reliable tea packing machine that would ensure stable production while also accommodating future expansion plans.
Factory visit arrangements
During initial discussions, the client clearly stated that they would purchase equipment after securing production facilities and funding. Before this, they would send professional personnel to visit the factory.
In November, we received the representatives’ travel information and made the necessary arrangements. During the visit, the representatives noticed that the tea packaging machine was not in stock and inquired about it. Our staff immediately explained:
Due to the variations in materials, packaging sizes, weights, and packaging methods required by each customer for the tea packaging machine, customization is necessary. Therefore, our factory generally does not keep them in stock.
This visit significantly strengthened the trust between the client. Subsequently, the client expanded the project scope, requesting not only a tea packaging machine but also quotations for the following equipment:
- A heat-shrink sealing and cutting machine for secondary packaging.
- A jacketed kettle for tea processing and flavoring.
At this point, the client also revealed their plan to establish a complete process for producing flavored tea and capture a significant share of the flavored tea market.
