UNI TEA, a family story !
UNI, this is the story of Benjamin & Stephane, two cousins who wanted to fulfill their bottle with passion & healthy ingredients: 100% natural ingredients with real infused tea & superfood.
Join the project & participate to the development of a sustainable brand!
2% interest rate / 4 year fixed loan
the founders: two united cousins
We are Stéphane & Benjamin, two cousins in love with traveling & tea amateur. In March 2017, we have unified our two passions in one project: A new range of 3 infused tea with superfood, 100% organic, 100% natural & healthy: So was born UNI TEA!
A Healthy alternative to drinks which include sugar
UNI TEA is the only organic brand offering the perfect mix between real infused tea leaves & superfood & combining all the following benefits:
- Real infused tea leaves from altitude plantations
- No concentrated juice
- Organic & 100% natural ingredients
- Organic teas from altitude plantations only (up to 1500m)
- Low sugar (less than 3.7g/100ml)
- Low calories (less than 16Kcal/100ml)
- Superfood inside : Aloe Vera, Ginseng, Ginger, Yuzu, Goji
All our dinks are created in Paris & manufactured in France. Dealing with the packaging, we have chosen Tetra Pak: low carbon footprint compared to glass & PET, paper is already recycled & 100% recyclable (our paper is also certified FSC). And last but not least, Tetra Pak bottles allow a better lifetime as it protects from light.
Organic tea from altitude plantations only (1,500m+)
We have selected our tea producers according to 3 main commitments:
- Good Life conditions of tea workers
- Tea at the right price for tea producers
- The compliance with Organic farms standards
All plantations are altitude plantations & are located in the best regions of tea production. All our tea producers are duly organic farm certified. Our white tea is coming from Hunan & Fujian areas in China, our black tea is coming from Darjeeling in India, our green tea is coming from Yen Baï in Vietnam.
A sustainable project, ethic & environmental: 5% of our net income to save the bees!
Making organic products without an ethic & environmental dimension did not make sense for us. Then, As our drinks include honey inside, and because bees are precious for the planet, we have decided to create a sustainable program to save bees & help tea workers.
In partnership with french beekeepers, we are developing beehive farms to repopulate their declining numbers due to pesticides. Bee populations are declining sharply, as they are victims of collateral damage caused by pesticides.
Our commitment is to donate 5% of our profits for the development of beehive farms. We already bought our first beehives in the south of France (Aveyron) with our first beekeeper Jean Jerome, organic famer & bees friend since 2006.
All revenue from the sales of honey produced in our farms will be donated to associations contributing to the improvement of the quality of life of those who work in the tea plantations in Vietnam, China & India.
Our distribution: already in France & as soon as possible in your city !
Unity & Universality are core values for us. Our willingness is to make accessible to everyone healthy & natural drinks from organic farmings (right price & all places). Then, we have chosen to distribute our drinks in all organic shops, supermarkets, restaurants, salad bars & business offices & Business catering. Today, we are proud to be in more than 1,000 points of sales including 130 Bio C’ Bon which is the highest value organic products distribution company in France.
Innovation as a key...
We now need to go further with our business development and move to next step. Each semester, we are going to propose 2 innovations. Our next innovations are ready to be manufactured: Tea latte with non-dairy milk & superfood + the development of our 3 infused tea in a new format: 1L. This new format will reduce our final price from 6€/L (33cl format) to 3,49€/L (1L format).
We need you to make our innovations real!
Our objective is to become a leading brand for organic drinks & superfood, and you can be part of this successful story!
... & we wish to have soon the opportunity to meet with you !

- LANEF (European Commission loan): 15000€ including 10 000€ in 2017 (0% rate)
- Banque Populaire (bank loan): 25 000€ (1,2% rate)
Today, the remaining amount is 60 000€. The debt ratio CT/EBITDA shows that the company can refund this amount in 1 year!

Why Crowdfunding?
Sharing, unity, Universality are at the heart of our values. That is why it made sense for us to work with a crowdfunding platform, furthermore a platform dedicated to sustainable projects such as Blue Bees.
Working with Blue Bee is also the opportunity to gather & federate a community of people committed in the green & sustainable economy.
