Delmar Estate
Delmar Estate achieved yet another all-time record price of Rs. 890 per kg for a BOPSP grade in the Uda Pussellawa Region at the weekly tea auctions held on 25-26 January.
This surpassed their own record of Rs. 870 for the same grade set the previous week – the fourth consecutive week that Delmar Estate achieves an all-time record price, owing to the exceptional performance by the estate in manufacturing high-quality tea in the respective region.
This particular line of tea was marketed by Forbes and Walker Tea Brokers Ltd.
Delmar Estate which is Rainforest Alliance certified ensures good quality standards are maintained in the production process. The estate is managed by Udapussellawa Plantations PLC under the stewardship of Shamil Perera, which is part of Browns Power Holdings Ltd. that recently acquired a 90% stake of Finlays Tea Estates Sri Lanka.
