PROFILE |
 |
Though it leans heavily on its cane, Florida Crystals is not so old that it's set in its ways. One of the top US sugar producers, the company (aka Flo-Sun) grows sugar cane and rice on its 180,000 acres of land. It produces granulated, baking, powdered, and large and fine grain sugar under the Natural Sugars brand name. The company also makes Sem-Chi rice and runs two energy plants that use sugar cane by-products. Flo-Sun has expanded into the growing organic products market with organic sugar and rice. The company recently signed on with Florida-based FarmGro Organic Foods to market FarmGro's flour. Flo-Sun is owned by the politically potent Fanjul family, who founded it in the 1960s after fleeing Fidel Castro's Cuba.
