San Francisco, CA (1888PressRelease)
August 16, 2009 - EcoTuesday, a unique, structured monthly networking event for sustainable business leaders held concurrently in seven cities across the country, will feature Ahmed Rahim, CEO and Co-Founder behind Numi Organic Tea, as its speaker in August. Numi Organic Tea is a leading purveyor of premium-quality, full-leaf organic and Fair Trade Certified teas, as well as an innovative line of flowering teas. EcoTuesday will be held at W Hotel, 181 Third Street, San Francisco on August 25 from 6:30 to 9:00 pm.
Rahim states, “Your business is not just a product. It’s how the product is sourced, how it’s packaged and you take care of your employees.” Rahim will discuss how to take a “cradle to cradle” approach to all aspects of your business.
Numi is now pioneering a new line of organic Puerh Teas, an ancient healing tea packed with antioxidants. Numi’s organic and Fair Trade Certified blends use real freeze dried fruits, fresh herbs and spices. Numi’s full leaf teas are never treated with added flavors, colorings or essences common to the market, and thus possess a rich and pure flavor. Numi is committed to global consciousness and sustainability through packaging and business practices.
“It’s important for businesses to inspect and analyze every area of their supply chain,” said Nikki Pava, President, EcoTuesday. “EcoTuesday is committed to showcasing businesses that serve as leaders in sustainability and can share concrete examples of best practices so everyone in the room can apply them to their own company.”
