Japanese Green Tea Company was invited to the World Tea Expo 2018 since we were the winners of the Global Tea Championship 2017.
The World Tea Expo was held at the Las Vegas Convention Center from June 11 to 14, 2018. The expo had more than 3,500 attendees and 260 exhibitors.
This was our first-ever expo experience of any kind, so it was quite challenging to prepare and conduct a booth, but thanks to all the help from everyone involved, it was an extremely successful event for us.
Here are some of the pictures and videos from the Expo so that you can see what it was like at the Expo.
