Planning EEC Category 1 white sugar production increase in four cooperating sugar factories

The paper presents a proposal for a modernisation and expansion of production capacity across four cooperating sugar factories to achieve common goals:

– Increase of sugar production by 25%.

– Production of at least 50% EEC1 sugar; the rest should be at least be EEC2 quality.

A group of sugar factories creates more investment opportunities and reduces investment costs relative to a separate approach for each factory. The construction of a new sugar factory and the modernisation of the four existing units to obtain EEC1 sugar would involve significantly higher costs.
