Private Label Matcha
- Direct Trade from Our Uji, Kyoto Matcha Factory
Craft Your Own Private Label Matcha Brand
If you’re passionate about matcha, you’ve probably imagined selling a product that carries your own brand—high-quality, finely crafted, and directly sourced from Kyoto Uji, Japan’s most renowned tea region.
While the idea of launching a unique private label matcha product may seem out of reach—complex sourcing, high minimum orders, and quality control—our service makes it accessible to you.
As part of our diverse range of services, we offer private label manufacturing tailored to your needs. The private label matcha we provide is carefully produced at our own Kyoto Uji factory and exported directly to ensure exceptional quality and freshness for markets worldwide.
Three Key Features of Our Private Label Service
Low Minimum Order Starting at Just 100 Units
Unlike many suppliers that require large-volume commitments, we believe freshness and flexibility matter most. We’ll work with you starting from 100 units, helping you maintain optimal inventory levels, reduce risk, and ensure your customers enjoy peak-quality matcha.
Direct Trade from Kyoto Uji, Japan
We are a historic matcha producer, Tsuji Riichi Honten, based in Uji, Kyoto. With over 160 years of matcha-making tradition, we provide authentically sourced matcha directly to you—no middlemen, no compromises. It’s the true taste of Japan, delivered straight from our mill to your door.
A Wide Range of Matcha Varieties and Packaging
We offer a wide range of matcha, from ceremonial grade to everyday blends, tailored to suit your brand’s image and target audience. Choose from cans or pouches to create the perfect packaging that aligns with your vision and appeals to your customers.
* White-label matcha without custom labels is available starting from as few as 10 units. For more details, please contact us.
Choose from Two Packaging Options
Cans
Matcha packaged in cans that deliver a refined, premium look. Inside each can, you’ll find an aluminum pouch filled with freshly milled matcha.
If you prefer to provide your own custom cans, we can supply only the sealed matcha pouch, allowing you total control over your final packaging design.
We can accommodate quantities ranging from 20g to 80g per can.
Bags
For those who prioritize simplicity and cost-effectiveness, we also offer sturdy, airtight bags.
Thanks to their resealable zipper, your customers can maintain quality even after opening.
We can accommodate quantities ranging from 40g to 120g per bag.
Our Private Label Production Process
Step 1: Consultation
We’ll begin by discussing your vision, budget, preferred raw materials, and desired order quantity. Communication can be handled via email or online meeting, ensuring a smooth, transparent planning phase.
Step 2: Sample Delivery
Once we understand your needs, we’ll send you sample containers and matcha pouches for evaluation. This lets you see firsthand the quality, packaging, and overall feel of your potential product before committing.
Step 3: Production & Shipping
During this time, we’ll also work with your provided label design files to create the final product packaging. After completion, we ship directly to your chosen destination.
Frequently Asked Questions
A: To shorten lead times, we typically provide samples without custom labels. If you would like to see the final product with your label design, it will take approximately 2 weeks for the labeled sample to be delivered to you after receiving the design.
A: Our minimum order starts at 100 units. While some clients request larger volumes (e.g., 500 units or more), we emphasize freshness as key quality factors. To maintain the freshness of matcha, we’re happy to provide smaller, split shipments over time. Any direct or indirect costs associated with split shipments will be covered by us.
A: There are some countries where export is not possible. Please contact us for details regarding your specific location.
