Under the company’s successful “route to market” sugar marketing business model, Kilombero enjoys significant local consumer support for its direct consumption brown sugar sold under the ‘Bwana Sukari’ brand name. Kilombero is one of four sugar producers in Tanzania which, at current production levels of just over 300 000 tons of sugar, is a net importer of sugar. Using raw molasses from the sugar-making process at both factories, the estate also houses a 12-million litre per annum potable alcohol distillery supplying high-quality potable alcohol into the expanding local and East African beverage market, providing strategic diversity for our Tanzanian business.
