Tata Coffee

[11] In 1943, Bull purchased Consolidated Coffee Estates Ltd. from Matheson, and registered it as an Indian company headquartered in Pollibeta.

In the following years, the Edinburgh Company divested its shareholdings to the Indian public and relinquished its controlling stake in 1966.

[10][11] Bull managed the company until 1966, after which he retired and returned to England where he lived on a farm in Suffolk until his death in 1971.

[14] The company sold its stake in Barista to Chennai-based Sterling Infotech Group, promoted by C. Sivasankaran, in 2004.

[20] The 8,258 sq ft facility has the capacity to produce 375 metric tonnes of coffee annually.

Under the plan, Tata Coffee's extraction and branded coffee business would be merged with the parent company, while its plantation business would become a part of TCPL Beverages & Foods, which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tata Consumer Products.
