Our Story

Jacksons of Piccadilly was established over 200 years ago by Robert Jackson. Jackson had a passion for tea. He was enthused by the exotic beverage and using his innovative foresight, Jackson created one of the first preblended teas using the finest quality ingredients in the world.

Jackson exhibited his teas in his Piccadilly warehouse throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries building a widely acclaimed reputation for supplying the finest quality teas.

Today Jacksons of Piccadilly continues to produce speciality teas worldwide and continues to support over 114,000 producers and their families with their connection to the Fairtrade charity.
