AGRANA Company Description
A passer-by might only see a field of beet greens waving in the breeze, but AGRANA sees sugar. The company's sugar factories refine beet sugar in central Europe and sell it to consumers and food manufacturers. It also operates starch factories (in Hungary and Romania) which refine potato and corn starch for the food, paper, textile, bioenergy, and chemical industries. Through worldwide acquisitions, AGRANA has added fruit processing to its mix and in 2007 fruit became the company's largest revenue sector. Its worldwide fruit plants make fruit juice concentrates, frozen fruits, and other fruit preparations for use by food and beverage manufacturers. The company is 50% owned by German sugar giant, Südzucker.
