What the sources say about these ties
- Pepsi Lipton International runs it
- Ready-to-drink Lipton Ice Tea outside North America; second 50/50 PepsiCo and Unilever joint venture, widened to large European and other markets in September 2007.
- Pepsi/Lipton Tea Partnership runs it
- Ready-to-drink Lipton teas in North America; 50/50 PepsiCo and Unilever joint venture.
- Lipton Teas and Infusions owns
- Lipton Teas and Infusions lists Lipton first in its own brands portfolio. Tea and infusions only: Unilever retained the ready-to-drink Lipton Ice Tea joint venture worldwide and, per the Lipton article, Lipton instant soup mixes in North America. The market carve-out follows the Wikipedia article on Lipton Teas and Infusions, which names India, Nepal and Indonesia; the Wikipedia article on Lipton also lists Sri Lanka among the markets Unilever kept.
- Unilever owns
- Unilever retained the use of the Lipton name for tea in these markets when it sold the tea business to CVC Capital Partners.
Built from the ownership rows on the brand and company pages, each cited where it is recorded. Made in is the country of production on this product's record; the GS1 prefix of a barcode names the issuing organisation, not where the product was made.
About this product
Lipton Tchaé Thé Vert Menthe is a mint-flavoured green tea sold in France as 20 Pyramid bags in a 40 g carton box.[1] Its label lists green tea (82.4%, Rainforest Alliance certified), mint (8.8%) and natural flavouring, and names Ekaterra Global Operations B.V. in Rotterdam as the operator beside the ekaterra logo.[1] The box replaced the 25-bag 50 g Tchaé Menthe pack of Unilever France, with the front banner "Nouvel emballage recyclable" and the same mint share.[1][2] Auchan and Friandiz list it under this barcode.[3][4]
Ekaterra was Unilever's tea business; after its sale to CVC Capital Partners in 2022 it was renamed Lipton Teas and Infusions, which retailers now name as the operator.[5][3]
