DAVIDsTEA chief executive officer and chief brand officer Sarah Segal said: “Since we opened our doors in 2008, we’ve been rooted in eco-friendly decisions.  

“Tea is naturally compostable, and it’s our goal to leave nothing behind. That’s why it’s important to us to find innovative solutions and test new materials but without compromising on our high standards for quality and freshness – that’s where the new compostable packaging for our Garden to Cup teas comes in.  

“We’re continuously working towards the development of regenerative packaging options and look forward to expanding it to more of our collection in the future.” 

Headquartered in Montreal, DAVIDsTEA offers a speciality branded selection of proprietary loose-leaf teas, prepackaged teas, tea sachets, and tea-related accessories and gifts.  

The company operates through its e-commerce platform and stores in the US and Canada.
