History
Originally BBTCL was formed as a public company to encourage teak business by taking over the assets and rights in Burma (now Myanmar) of William Wallace. At that time, the company was catering to the domestic demands, then expanded trading in other Asian regions. It was not until 1913 that the Company turned its attention to tea plantations and invested in suitable areas in South India
