In connection, the field of Tea Operation Management has some numeric data on foreign exchange regarding the commodity. Therefore, statistics are illustrated to gauge matters foreign exchange/overall annual production performance of the Kenyan economy. The tea sector has been credited as a significantly large global market today and in the foreseeable future. The sector is significant in helping farmers and employees within the tea industry earn a living together with growing economies particularly as a channel through existing tea growing companies and countries. The sector consists of a hand-full of tea-growing countries that have been involved in tea production over centuries and neighbouring c…
