At AMBA, our mission is to maximise incomes for communities working in the tea sector, and we are keen for others to adopt our model – so we love working with THIRST to spread the message and share ideas with other innovative players in the tea industry.

About
Amba Estate is an organic farm, guest-house and social enterprise in the Uva Highlands of Sri Lanka, specialising in tea. Amba’s primary mission is to maximise local employment and incomes, while preserving the natural environment. It does so by showing local farmers and craftsmen how they can develop their own value-added products and experiences and selling these direct to international consumers (rather than just selling low-value raw materials to large processors and wholesalers).
