Lipton is a British brand owned by Lipton Teas and Infusions. It derives from its founder, Sir Thomas Lipton, who started a grocery retail business in the United Kingdom in 1871. The brand was used for various consumer goods sold in Lipton stores, including tea from 1890, for which Lipton is now best known.
The brand was purchased in 2022 by CVC Capital Partners from Unilever. Unilever retained use of the Lipton brand for tea in India, Nepal, Indonesia, and Sri Lanka as well as for ready to drink beverages globally, such as Lipton Ice Tea, which are sold by a joint venture between Unilever and PepsiCo, and not associated with Lipton Teas and Infusions. Unilever also reserved the right to produce Lipton branded instant soup mixes in North America.
