Illovo Group Statistics
| CANE PRODUCTION (million tons) |
A total of 6.2 million tons of cane was produced on Illovo’s estates
despite a climatically challenging season.  |  | | RAW MATERIAL THROUGHPUT (million tons/including outgrowers) |
Around 66% of cane throughput provided by the group’s own
agricultural estates and by outgrowers is cultivated under
irrigation.  |  | | SUGAR PRODUCTION (000 tons) |
Sugar production in 2011/12 fell by 7% to 1.5 million tons, due
largely to lower production in South Africa as a result of the
continued impact of drought conditions.  |  | | GROUP MARKETS (000 tons) |
A total of 64% of total sugar sales was sold into domestic markets
in 2011/12 via a range of bulk and pre-packed industrial and direct
consumption sugars in both refined and brown sugar offerings.  |  | | REFINED SUGAR PRODUCTION (000 tons) |
Refined sugar production was again impacted by reduced raw
sugar feedstock due to the drought in South Africa, however, the
performance of the newly-expanded Noodsberg refinery was good.  |  | | ILLOVO SHARE OF INDUSTRY PRODUCTION (%) |
Consistent with the group’s Strategic Intent, Illovo commands a
significant share of production in each of the countries in which it
operates.  |  | Back to Top
