Overview

Ringtons is a family business steeped in more than a century of tradition. Established in 1907 by Samuel Smith, our founder's unique idea to sell quality tea with community at its heart laid the foundation for a legacy of a personal, friendly service that endures to this day. 

With an initial investment of £250, Ringtons began the journey delivering outstanding tea and coffee door-to-door – a tradition we proudly continue today – although it’s no longer by horse-drawn cart. 

Over the years, Ringtons continued to evolve, and today we have a thriving business division which helps establishments serve outstanding tea, coffee and more in the out-of-home environment.

With one of the largest tea and coffee manufacturing facilities in the UK, Ringtons stands as a beacon of quality within the industry. We’re behind some of the nations most loved and cherished brands, supporting them with their tea and coffee products.  Our extensive network of business enjoys our traceable, sustainable supply chain, reflecting not only a commitment to quality, but undying passion for great-tasting tea and coffee.

Ringtons for Businesses also supply a large range of coffee machines, from traditional espresso machines to brewers and innovative vending concepts. Complementing this is our Specialty Grade Arabica Coffee, meticulously sourced and roasted by our SCA-qualified coffee experts, including our in-house Q grader. 

Our commitment to unrivalled taste and freshness extends to our carefully selected and sealed-at-source teas. Evaluated by our expert team of tasters, who sample hundreds of teas daily, we ensure that you get great tea consistently. 

Ringtons are unwavering in our pursuit of excellence, our aim is to make every cup of tea and coffee, a moment of care and joy for all generations. We see every every cup as an opportunity to tell a story of quality, passion, and community.
