Henry P. Thomson, Inc.
Established in 1912, Henry P. Thomson, Inc. is one of the oldest and largest tea importers currently operating in the United States.

Our headquarters are located in New Jersey, but we maintain purchasing offices in Hefei, China and Obera, Argentina. For those origins where we do not maintain our own offices, we either correspond directly with the producers or have an exclusive relationship with an exporting agent.

While many of our clients prefer to purchase container load quantities delivered directly to their facilities, we also maintain sizable inventories at public warehouses in New Orleans, LA, Elizabeth, NJ and Rotterdam, Netherlands. This allows for smaller deliveries and also enables us to guarantee product quality and availability for our larger customers.

If your firm is currently buying tea, or is planning to do so in the future, you could have no partner better able to help you establish and maintain quality parameters, secure a consistent source of supply and provide for timely delivery of your product. Contact us at mail@hpthomson.com.


In 1835, Charles Bewley imported 2,000 chests of tea directly from China’s Guang Dong Province to Ireland, marking the end of the East India Trading Company’s tea monopoly. Five years later, Bewley’s Oriental Cafes opened in Dublin, offering patrons the opportunity to sample new and exotic teas from around the world.

More than 165 years later, Bewley’s master tea blenders still make weekly purchases from the leading tea auction centers including Calcutta, Colombo, Mombassa and Jakarta. Only the finest teas are selected based on leaf appearance and infusion qualities such as flavor, briskness, color and strength.

As a result of our commitment to our distinguished heritage, Bewley’s is internationally renowned for award-winning estate teas.

Offering packet teas, loose leaf and chai, Bewley’s offers full service solutions for today’s tea retailer.
