Rize's digital commerce potential
Rize is Türkiye's tea capital; almost all of the country's fresh tea leaf comes from this region. The 2024 crop approached one and a half million tonnes, and production is shared almost equally between the state-owned ÇAYKUR and a large number of private factories. Tea sits at the centre of the city's economic and cultural identity.
Tea is not only an agricultural commodity but a brand opportunity: with the right packaging and story, geographically indicated Rize tea can move out of bulk selling and become a high-value, branded product. Tea exports are strengthening too, with significant recent growth in value across dozens of countries.
New value-added branches are emerging around tea: tea-based cosmetics are an innovative field that widens the city's production range. With the right brand and storytelling, these products can address a niche but high-value market.
Agriculture continues to diversify: kiwi is a fast-rising crop in Rize, while fishing — anchovy in particular — is an important part of both local gastronomy and the economy. These products are also well suited to branding and e-commerce beyond the region.
Tourism is a growing source of income: the Ayder highlands, the thermal springs and mountain tourism attract domestic and international visitors, and the unique green landscape creates a strong pull for nature tourism. Businesses, however, do not fully use this potential online, especially in multilingual promotion.
Rize's advantage is that it can process and brand its raw product: the tea is already processed in factories, and the next step is turning it into a strong consumer brand and into tea tourism. The right e-commerce, brand and tourism digital work can connect tea, cosmetics and the highlands directly to consumers and guests.

How business is done in Rize
A large number of small tea growers, along with ÇAYKUR and the private factories, shape the Rize economy; business is built largely on the grower-factory relationship and on family ownership. Your counterpart is usually the owner, and trust, continuity and product quality come first.
Branding and e-commerce are welcomed once it is clear they will raise the value of the tea. Phone and WhatsApp are the fast channels; on the tourism side the nature experience and occupancy decide, and on the food side brand and taste do.
