Tea Price Report | Week 13 | Ending 27 Month

Tea markets closed ISO Week 13 with prices still largely influenced by quality, buyer selectivity, and disciplined exporter behavior rather than any broad increase in demand. Reports from the current week suggest a generally stable but uneven market across all major auction centers, with strength mainly in well-produced teas and growing pressure on secondary descriptions.

Colombo (Sri Lanka) Prices averaged $3.21/kg this week, ↓ -$0.02/kg from the previous week, reflecting fair demand but softer performance in parts of the premium and Ex-Estate catalogs amid increased offerings.

North India (Kolkata / Siliguri / Guwahati) Prices averaged $1.88/kg, ↑ +$0.09/kg, supported by stronger demand and improved Tea Board benchmark averages.

Mombasa (Kenya / East Africa) Prices averaged $2.21/kg, ↓ -$0.01/kg, reflecting steady but slightly easier conditions with unsold volumes in key grades.

Indonesia Prices averaged $2.41/kg, ↑ +$0.01/kg, supported by improved demand and tighter offerings.

Across the tea lands pricing was mixed. Clearance remains orderly but selective, with persistent unsold volumes in East Africa and uneven performance across Colombo catalogues.
