Pekoe aims to revolutionize the world Tea Industry using data and state-of-the-art AI technologies. The tea industry has a history of thousands of years and many traditional practices govern how the supply chain operates. We believe that data and AI can change how the tea industry works and as a result improve the quality of tea, the efficiency of the tea supply chain, and improve the quality of life of all stakeholders in the tea industry.
Pekoe was formed by B. P. De Silva Holdings to mark the 150th Anniversary of the company. Since 1872, B. P. De Silva Group has been growing in Tea, Gem, and Jewellery Industries, operating from Singapore. The company was formed looking at the technology revolution for the next 50 years of the Tea Industry. Pekoe is moving forward with a full thrust to revolutionize the tea industry with technology.
The black tea industry is a traditional and conservative industry that has not seen much technological advancement in recent years. However, with the rapid development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other technologies, it is time for the industry to take a step forward and leverage these technologies to improve efficiency and increase value. This is where Pekoe comes in.
Pekoe is dedicated to developing and implementing AI and other cutting-edge technologies to revolutionize the black tea industry. The team at Pekoe understands the challenges faced by the industry and is committed to finding solutions that will make the industry more efficient, productive, and profitable.
One of the main challenges faced by the black tea industry is the lack of technological support in the production process. This results in a high degree of subjectivity and a lack of consistency in the quality of the final product. With the use of AI, Pekoe aims to induce AI into the production process and improve the consistency of the final product. This will not only save costs but also increase the value of the final product. In addition to that, Pekoe also aims to leverage AI and other technologies to improve the production, marketing and distribution of black tea. By using AI-powered tools and technologies, Pekoe can help to better target and reach consumers, thus increasing the overall value of the industry.
In conclusion, the black tea industry has a lot of potential for growth and improvement, but it needs to embrace new technologies to achieve this. Pekoe is leading the way in this effort, with a strong focus on AI and other cutting-edge technologies to revolutionize the industry and make it more efficient, productive, and valuable for all stakeholders.
