Tea cultivation in Bangladesh began during British colonial rule, with the first commercial tea garden, Malnicherra Tea Estate, established in Sylhet in 1854. The region’s climate and fertile soil made it ideal for tea production, leading to the development of numerous gardens across Sylhet, Moulvibazar, Habiganj, and the Chattogram Hill Tracts. After the independence of Bangladesh in 1971, the tea industry gradually came under national oversight through the Bangladesh Tea Board, formed in 1977. Today, Bangladesh is among the top tea-producing countries, with the tea industry playing a vital role in the economy and providing employment to hundreds of thousands, especially women. The tea gardens, particularly in Srimangal, are also significant cultural and tourist attractions.
