Commercial property: Hoogly Tea set for exciting new chapter

Launched five years ago by Tina Gloggengieser, a Dane now living in Brighton, Hoogly Tea is a British brand with a Nordic twist - offering high-quality teas enhanced with a naturally indulgent taste and aroma.

From humble beginnings, the brand’s popularity and reputation have grown rapidly in the last few years, and it is now stocked with Ocado and served at some of the most luxurious hotels and Michelin star restaurants in the UK.

To help accommodate Hoogly’s impressive growth, the company recently purchased a new property in Brighton, which will be home to their offices - as well as a new Tea Lodge set to launch later this summer.

SO Legal’s commercial property team helped the company acquire the freehold property at 11 South Road, Brighton, BN1 6SB - situated on the end of a parade of attractive mixed-use commercial and residential properties, close to the junction with Preston Road.

Tina Gloggengieser said:

“Hoogly is growing, and we needed more space, and during the lockdown a property near us became available. We are launching our Tea Lodge, and thanks to SO Legal, everything went through smoothly and now preparing for opening.”

Hamish Smith, head of commercial property, said:

“Brighton has long been a hub for dynamic, independent businesses run with genuine passion - and we are delighted to have assisted Hoogly in this property purchase. I want to congratulate Tina and her team and wish them every success as they continue to grow.”

If you’re interested in finding out more, make sure you visit the Hoogly Tea website, where you can view the full range of teas, all lovingly created and hand-blended in the UK.

Tina adds:

“We have some exciting new blends coming up. We have just launched Citrus Blossom, and our next one, Pumpkin Spice, will be launched in autumn.”
