1964 Distribution of loose tea to the hotel chains by Sri Chandratanji and Lt. Sri Surajratanji on bicycles marked the humble beginning of Chandak Chai. From 1970 onwards, the two brothers started visiting various tea gardens in Assam for procuring exclusively selected tea. They ventured forth into unknown seas by setting up a wholesale enterprise in the name of Indra tea trading company at Telepa
ra, Jaipur to meet the loose tea demand in Rajasthan in 1977. For enhanced working, in 1979, Bharat tea agency was setup in Guwahati, Assam to oversee the purchase of tea from the auction centre there. Diligence, passion driven by integrity value creation and the commitment to serve only the best quality to the consumers soon made the two brothers experts in the business. Chandak Chai, by selling 5 kg and 21 kg tea in cloth bags under the brand name “Golden B.P”, pioneered the use of reusable cloth bags for packaging in India. Their sons followed in their father’s footsteps by joining the business. During this time, the company saw continuous expansion and growth in its scale of operation. Around this decade, need for the packaged tea was anticipated & several retail outlets in Jaipur -Chandak Brothers at Tripolia Bazar in 1980 ,Chandak traders at Surajpol Mandi in 1982, Chandak Tea Emporium in 1984 at Johari Bazar & Chandak Tea Company in 1990 at Ramganj bazaar respectively were opened to meet the demand for the same. In 1991, a tea packaging unit, Chandak tea products, was built and operationalised at Hirawala Industrial area, Jaipur. Tea was now packed in polyester pouches of various sizes ranging from 10 grams to 1 kg through state of the art machines to retain the flavour and aroma of the tea. In 1996, the packaging unit was merged under the name of Chandak Chai Pvt Ltd. Thus, began the distribution of branded “Chandak Chai” & “Chandakjee Chai” to the consumers. Because of the synergised efforts of seven brothers, their futuristic outlook and the prowess that they acquired through experience, Chandak Chai has become a name synonymous with quality, consistency and reliability today. Vision to continually serve more than the customer expectations made the director, BM Chandak foray into the grass root level of tea manufacturing – tea leaves processing and production. He acquired and successfully managed Hautely tea estate, Golaghat(Assam) and Longboi tea estate, Moran(Assam) from 2009 till 2013 under the name of Marudhar Tea Company Pvt Ltd.
