The findings of a study conducted in Paksong district Champasak province, there are five main components to the tea production chain system: tea producers, production groups, local tea translators, foreign investment companies, exporting companies, and the domestic market. The section on supporting activities is divided into three sections: financial institutions, tea associations, and government agencies. There are participants in the primary activity of Paksong City's chain system for producing tea. The research by Mishra, Kattel et al. and Nguyen, Chu, and To (2015), Vietnam Tea Industry: An Analysis From Value Chain Approach, which covers Producers (Farmers), Processors, Traders, Domestic wholesale and retailers, and Exporters, is strongly linked to the value mapping of tea.
An investigation into the orthodox tea (Camellia sinensis) value chain with an emphasis on certification was carried out in Nepal's eastern Himalayan corridor. According to traditional tea value chain mapping, tea growers grow the leaves for their products, local traders and cooperatives exchange the leaves, and processing factory owners handle the marketing and processing of the tea. It is evident that a large number of people are involved in the tea value chain inside the chain system of tea production. Every player in the primary activity of tea products has a function and responsibility. To advance the cause of making tea production a significant industry, each member has both skills and shortcomings that need to be recognized and encouraged. A community product, a provincial strategic product, and one that has the potential to grow into a future national export.
