The elaboration line that is going to be implemented has an enzymatic cutting system by the pan fried method, it is innovative and allows obtaining green tea without the addition of water vapor that must later be extracted, which generates greater energy efficiency.
The new plant will have a capacity of 1,000 tons of pan-fried green tea per year. This will allow you to expand your product portfolio to grow in new markets.
