Our Story

 

About Chajia Co.: Who we are and how it works

Hello, we’re the Lai Family! At Chajia Co., "Chajia" means tea family - a reminder that our story began in our family kitchen, tea was a way to bring us together. Growing up in Malaysia, our Grandpa always had a pot of tea brewing and family members and neighbours would often drop by - over cups of tea, we shared stories, laughed and bonded.

Inspired by those moments of connection, we created Chajia Co. to make artisan tea accessible while supporting small, passionate tea businesses. In a market that is often dominated by mass-produced, commercialised options, we want to build a vibrant, sustainable ecosystem where independent tea producers and their communities can thrive.

Now, Chajia Co. is a growing community of tea enthusiasts who celebrate the stories, craftmanship, and adventures behind every cup.

A community built for bringing  people together

We want your experience with Chajia Co. to be simple, meaningful, and trustworthy. Here’s how we make that happen:

  • Every tea we feature is carefully chosen for its quality, authenticity, and story.
  • Your purchase directly supports small-scale growers and artisan tea businesses, creating a thriving community.
  • Our platform is designed to make your tea journey easy, from browsing to delivery.
  • Whether you have questions about teas, recommendations, or orders, we’re here to help every step of the way.



 
Thank you for being part of our story.

Together, we can continue to honour the tradition of tea, support the communities behind it, and share the simple joys that come with every sip.

Welcome to our family. Welcome to Chajia Co.
