Tate and Lyle Sugars Revenue and Competitors

Tate & Lyle Sugars has been refining sugar continuously at Thames Refinery since 1878. Over 140 years later it’s still going strong and today employs over 500 people. Not many companies have remained a favorite household brand - producing the same family of products, at the same location, for well over a century - so what’s the secret of its success? The answer lies in its people and its core values: ambition, innovation and pace.\n\nSo, while Tate & Lyle Sugars may still be based in the same place, new developments continue. In 2008, Tate & Lyle Sugars became the largest ever UK food and drink brand to switch to Fairtrade (starting with its granulated white sugar) and a project is currently underway to slash the refinery’s carbon footprint by over 25%, thanks to pioneering green technology developed by Tate & Lyle Sugars research and technology teams. \nIn 2010 Tate & Lyle Sugars was acquired by American Sugar Refining, Inc., based in Yonkers, New York, it is the world’s largest cane sugar refining company, dedicated to cane sugar with a total refining capacity of over 6 million tons of sugar per annum.\n\nThe company produces a full line of consumer, industrial, food service and specialty sweetener products. Across North America, American Sugar Refining owns and operates six sugar refineries -- in New York, California, Maryland, Louisiana, Canada and Mexico -- as well as specialty sweetener production facilities and a strategic warehousing and distribution system that combine to provide seamless production and delivery of its products to customers across the United States, Canada and Mexico. In the European Union, the company owns and operates sugar refineries in England and Portugal\n\nAmerican Sugar Refining’s products are marketed through its brand portfolio that includes the premiere sugar brands Domino®, C&H®, Florida Crystals®, Redpath® and Tate & Lyle®.
