About Us Our tea trail at BALAJI AGRO INTERNATIONAL traces its history back to 1959 when Mr. Santosh Kanoria took over the reins of the tea plantations of his family, the Kanoria group of industries, and transformed them into efficient quality conscious estates. A renowned planter and taster, he has owned and managed tea estates in Darjeeling, Assam, Terai and Dooars. In 1970 he decided to reduce his involvement in plantations and concentrate more on exports of quality teas. To fulfil this dream, the legend of BALAJI AGRO INTERNATIONAL was born. The cornerstones of this firm since its foundation have been: Trust, Service and Value for money . It is this sincerity of objective coupled with an in-depth knowledge of tea and its marketing, as well as our high personalised levels of service that has made BALAJI AGRO INTERNATIONAL a respected name in the international tea world today. In our fast paced world, stress and pressure have become part of us as we go about our daily lives. As each one of us pause to discover the meaning of life and our place in the world, we discover that the overriding goal is to find inner happiness and peace. A good tea is nature's gift to us and the satisfaction derived from tea provides us with moments of tranquility, satisfaction and happiness. This is why tea is still a drink to sit back and enjoy, and not just a casual beverage to gulp on the go. It is this philosophy of tea and its relevance to life that fuels our passion for tea and shapes our commitment to provide our clients and the consumer an enriching experience in their pursuit of tea and indeed life.
