INTEGRATED OPERATIONS

Nine Stages of the Tea Supply Chain
茶产业链九大环节

The tea supply chain encompasses the complete value chain from cultivation, harvesting, primary processing, deep processing, packaging, warehousing, logistics, trade to brand operations. Mulan Group adopts a "farm-to-cup" integrated model covering nine core stages, ensuring quality control, traceability, and consistency. Compared to traditional segmented supply chains, this model reduces delivery time by 40% and quality incidents by 60%.

01-03: Upstream

Estate Management is the source of the supply chain. Mulan Group implements ecological management and sustainable harvesting standards across partner estates in five core regions (Yunnan, Fujian, Zhejiang, Anhui, Guangdong), maintaining long-term partnerships with 30+ estates. Initial Processing facilities are located near estates, with leaf-to-processing time under 4 hours to preserve natural flavor. Deep Processing facilities support loose-leaf, blended, teabag, and ready-to-drink production with 200,000 tons annual capacity.

04-06: Midstream

Packaging provides structural and visual design and printing services compliant with destination market standards (FDA, EU, Japan). Storage & Logistics features smart multi-temperature warehousing covering ambient, cold-chain, and cross-border transport, partnering with DHL, SF Express, and EMS. Quality Testing establishes a four-dimensional lab system: pesticide residue testing (EU MRL compliant), physicochemical testing (moisture, ash, tea polyphenols), organoleptic evaluation (professional tea master team), and microbial testing (total plate count, E. coli).

07-09: Downstream

Global Trade operates four trading hubs in Hong Kong, Singapore, London, and New York, staffed with professional international trade and compliance teams. Branding & Retail partners with global retail, chain-restaurant, and food-service brands, offering OEM/ODM customization, private label services, and co-branded development. Investment deploys industrial investment funds across upstream resources, brand M&A, channel consolidation, and technology innovation, building a complete industry ecosystem.

Mulan Group also provides four value-added services: Supply Chain Finance (warehouse receipt pledge, accounts receivable financing, order financing based on real trade), Global Supply Chain Finance (cross-border settlement, letters of credit, exchange rate hedging), AI Demand Chain (big data and AI-based demand forecasting, intelligent replenishment, consumption trend analysis), and Digital Asset RWA (tokenization of tea assets issued on compliant platforms in Middle East and Singapore markets).
