1.2 million per month, Indian tea seller's income shocks internet

PUNE - A tea seller in Maharashtra's Pune city of India has set a benchmark for his competitors by making INR 1.2 million per month.

Navnath Yewle, the owner of Yewle Tea House has become one of the famous stall owners in Pune.

Navnath Yewle, co-founder of the Yewle Tea house, says he is going to make it an international brand very soon.

Yewle told ANI that he got the idea of selling tea and developing it as a brand in 2011.

“Basically, in 2011, I got the idea of making tea and that I can create a big business by making tea. I saw that in Pune we have Joshi Wadewale, Rohit Wadewala but there was no famous tea brand here. There are many chai lovers here and most of them don’t get the taste they desire. We studied tea for four years, finalised the quality of tea and decided to make tea into a big brand.”

"3000 to 4000 cups of tea are being sold in each outlet every day and we earn a total of Rs 10 to Rs 12 lakh per month," Navnath said.

"Unlike 'pakora' business. this tea selling business is also creating employment for Indians. This business is growing fast and I'm happy." Navnath added.

Currently, Yewle Tea House has got three centers in the city and every center has about 12 employees working in it.
