Lipton's Matcha Green Tea powder is a modern extension of one of the world's most historic tea brands. Originally founded in Glasgow, Scotland, by Sir Thomas Lipton in the late 19th century, the brand became a global household name under the ownership of the Anglo-Dutch conglomerate Unilever.
In recent years, the ownership structure of Lipton has undergone a major shift. In 2022, Unilever sold its global tea business (Ekaterra) to CVC Capital Partners. This specific product is manufactured in China by the Huangshan Maofeng Tea Group, a specialist tea producer located in the Anhui province, which is renowned for its high-quality tea cultivation. The product is distributed in the Hong Kong market by Integrated Market Services Asia Limited, demonstrating a complex global supply chain that blends British branding history with Chinese agricultural production and European private equity ownership.
