Sugar

Brazil’s sugar is an extremely high quality product. Produced under strict rules, it has become one of the most appreciated sweeteners in the world.

Brazil is the world’s largest producer of sugar and ethanol products and is responsible for contributing to the food of several countries that are not so lucky.

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, India, Africa and the United Arab Emirates. Virtually all Brazilian exports are traded in a free-market environment.
