Scop Ti (Société Coopérative Ouvrière Provençale de Thés et Infusions) is a workers' cooperative founded in 2016 for tea production in Gémenos in the south of France .
The company emerged in 2016 from the four-year occupation of the traditional Fralib tea factory by its workers. The factory belonged to the Unilever concern ; the latter wanted to stop production in 2012 and relocate it to cheaper locations. The workers then occupied their factory for 1336 days, founded the Scop Ti cooperative and in the end took over the business themselves. Since then they have been producing various teas, for example the "1336", named after the 1336 days of fighting for their factory.
