La création d'une grande plantation de thé, en anglais Tea Estate, nécessite des travaux importants. Le plus souvent elle exige un défrichement qui doit être fait à la main ou au bulldozer, mais toujours sans rien brûler sur le terrain à planter. Il faut aussi prévoir les routes, la construction de l'usine, des bureaux, des villages pour loger les travailleurs et des constructions annexes : écoles, hôpitaux, etc.
