About me
My Bio
My name is Sylwia Mokrysz.
Professionally and through my family I am associated with the Mokate company which has been cultivating the work ethics in the Cieszyn Silesia region for four generations now.
As a doctor of social sciences in the field of management and quality, I am actively involved in the coffee and tea market around the world.
As President of the Management Board of the Coffee and Tea Market Research Institute, I support the food industry in terms of scientific and research work.
In 2016, I represented our country at the “Women’s Entrepreneurship Day” in the UN headquarters in New York.
I participate in the global project of “Million Women Mentors”, supporting the professional activity of women.
I also hold the title of “Polish Ambassador of Women’s Entrepreneurship.”
About me
My Mokate
During my studies I founded the “Sylwia” Advertising Agency and implemented a pioneer advertising campaign for Mokate’s flagship product, cappuccino, with the slogan: “Mokate Cappuccino – a star among coffees.” I have also brought LOYD and Minutka to the forefront of tea brands in Poland and the neighbouring countries.
Thanks to my initiative, the Loyd brand has gained prestigious membership in “The London Tea History Association.”
As a consistent initiator of product innovations, I have won a significant number of distinctions, awards and honorary titles for the Mokate Group (Promotional Emblem “Teraz Polska” (“Poland Now”), “Superbrands,” President’s Economic Award, Consumer Laurel, Product of the Year, Hit FMCG Product, Golden Receipt and many others).
In the world of science
Apart from the world of marketing and scientific research, I am an enthusiast of travel, photography (numerous National Geographic workshops), good literature and design.
Key information from the blog
Why do people in hot countries drink hot tea?
At first glance, this seems completely illogical. When temperatures rise above 30°C, most of us instinctively reach for cold water or chilled drinks. Yet in many hot countries – from Morocco, through India, to the Arabian Peninsula – people have been drinking hot tea for generations, even during the hottest spells. Is it simply part of a local tradition, or is there more to it than that?
Why does iced tea taste different today than it used to?
For centuries, tea has primarily been associated with hot brewing. This method of preparation has become part of the tradition in many cultures and has remained largely unchanged over the years. Today, however, we are seeing an interesting trend. More and more people are discovering that tea can taste just as good when served cold and that the method of preparation has just as much impact on the final result as the choice of tea leaves themselves.
Why does good tea always hold its value?
In the tea market, prices can fluctuate from week to week. Just a few weeks of heavy rainfall, a poorer harvest or an increased supply can push prices down. Despite this, one thing remains constant – the highest prices are consistently paid for teas of exceptional quality. This is confirmed by an analysis of the dried tea market in the first half of 2026.
