India@60 in New York
Tea Board’s participation at the 60th Anniversary Celebrations of India’s
Independence “India@60“, to be held in New York from 23rd to 26th September
2007
Tea Board is participating in the India@60 Celebrations in New York from the
23rd to 26th September 2007. The said Celebrations include a host of
activities and events organized by Ministry of Tourism, Ministry of Culture
and Confederation of Indian Industries (CII).
The event is not a Trade Fair but more a Festival of India and is expected
to attract a lot of visitors. The event has been designed to “Experience
India Society’ which is going to be held in South Street Seaport. There
will be showcasing Indian Cuisine at a specially earmarked pavilion with
culinary demonstrations, food sampling etc. This is a very busy area in
Manhattan visited by a large number of people not only from New York but
visitors and tourists to New York as well and thereby may be an ideal area
for promotion of Indian Tea to the extent possible.Miriam Novalle of T Salon in Chelsea Market of New York will manage our show, while our North American distributor Lotus Tea House representated by John Mcpherson and his wife Siming Macpherson are organising Lochan Tea show there.
