Connecting North American buyers with high quality African teas and herbs

3 Mountains Collective is based in the US, with partners in Rwanda, Malawi, South Africa, and Kenya.
We source, import, and manage logistics for beverage manufacturers, tea blenders, and ingredient buyers seeking quality, transparency, and easier communication.

Our Ingredients
African Tea & Herb Supply
From everyday black CTC leaves to specialty white tip tea, our catalog is built for a range of commercial applications. We offer origin-specific teas and botanicals with options suited for brewed beverages, blending, and product development. Third party testing, certificates of analysis and certifications for organic, kosher, rainforest alliance and fair trade available.

Transparent Sourcing
Direct Origin Relationships
We work with trusted partners at origin and give buyers greater visibility into sourcing, documentation, and logistics. For businesses that value relationships with farmers and social impact, 3 Mountains Collective is best-in-class. Our founder has been working with Rwandan growers since 2006.

Social Impact

3 Mountains goes beyond fair trade by investing in long-term partnerships at origin. In Rwanda, we support programs focused on entrepreneurship, mentorship, and community development in tea-growing regions. Our work is rooted in the belief that strong supply chains should create lasting value for farmers, families, and the land.

Our Story

3 Mountains Collective was built through long-standing relationships in Rwanda that began in 2006. What started as a personal journey grew into a sourcing business rooted in direct partnership, transparency, and shared value. Our founder’s TED Talk shares more about the mission behind the company and the communities that shaped it.
