Transport! Such an important part of human civilization, isn’t it? Once the leaves are collected, they have to be transported to the next part of the supply chain. Middlemen come into play here! The collected leaves are bundled up by the collectors, and are then sold to middlemen. The middlemen transport the leaves in bulk on their mini-lorries or lorries to manufacturers like Adaaya, and sell the bundles to the company. Without these middlemen, the leaves wouldn’t make their way to the manufacturers!
