Interesting. Jacksons is currently owned by Associated British Foods,
which also owns Twinings and Fortnum & Mason. Twinings is trying to
gain market share in the non-specialty tea business in the UK, which is
why they recently introduced their Everyday Tea. I wonder if they
would really sell Jacksons to Tata and allow them to gain an even
larger share of the UK tea market, which they already dominate.

BTW, this past October Tata acquired Good Earth Tea in the USA.
