Sugar from Brazil
Brazil is the world’s largest producer of sugar and ethanol products.
We source our sugar from sugar factories in Brazil that produce sugar and ethanol products used in local and international markets.
Approximately two-thirds of the sugar produced in Brazil is destined for foreign markets. More than 100 countries around the world rely on sugar from Brazil with key export markets that include China, Russian Federation, India and Arab and African countries. Virtually all Brazilian exports are traded in a free-market environment.

ICUMSA 150 white cane sugar is also called White Crystal Sugar which is formed by crystallization process, without chemical refining. It is more easily available, and it is a lower cost replacement to the traditional ICUMSA 45 white refined sugar.
