Celebrating 60 Years of Innovation
Sugar Cane Growers Cooperative of Florida brings sugar from cane fields in South Florida to dinner tables, restaurants and food manufacturing facilities throughout America and around the globe.
Our Roots Run Deep
In 2022, Sugar Cane Growers Cooperative of Florida celebrated the close of our 60th crop. A momentous occasion that highlighted 60 years of environmental stewardship, innovative advancements in farming, and employing both members of our local community as well as world-class experts.
The Cooperative is comprised of small to medium-sized member farms that grow sugarcane on approximately 70,000 acres of what is among the most fertile and productive farmland in America, located in the Everglades Agricultural Area (EAA).
Sugarcane grown by its members is harvested, transported and processed, and the raw sugar is marketed. The Cooperative produces more than 350,000 tons of raw sugar annually that once refined, is enough to serve the average annual demand of more than 9 million people.
