Tate & Lyle


THE ZAMBIA SUGAR COMPANY

The sale of ZSC to Tate & Lyle has led to Zambian workers, shareholders and consumers benefitting from the world-class management, marketing and technical leadership of Tate & Lyle, as well as from the financial agricultural development capabilities of CDC. Due to its expansion programme (to which over US$100 million has been committed), ZSC has a potential for future expansion from 180,000 to 220,000 tonnes and its exports are expected to rise to 59% from 60,000 to 90,000 tonnes and an increased competitiveness from lower production costs and greater economies of scale.
