A new ecosystem together
Although there is great interest in organic products, the switch to organic production is not always a simple one. It requires substantial change in practices, both agricultural and industrial. As a cooperative, Tereos understands this new ecosystem and provides support and expertise to its partner growers. In this environment, long-term vision is key to supporting and building this new ecosystem.
First certified organic beet sugar production in France
As organic cane sugar differentiates itself by its unique taste and its tropical and wellness connotations in consumers’ minds, organic beet sugar has the key advantage for our European customers : it is local. Since October 2019, and for the first time in France, Tereos has added to its organic sugar portfolio certified organic beet sugar produced at its sugar plant in Attin. Certified organic by Ecocert, this new sugar meets high quality standards and expands your options.
