American Sugar

Whether you live in one of the many communities dependent on sugar production, are a taxpayer saving scarce federal dollars or a grocery shopper enjoying a safe and affordable sugar supply, you’re benefiting from America’s sugar producers.
  • America’s sugar farmers, processors, and refiners create 146,000 jobs and generate nearly $10 billion a year for the U.S. economy.
  • America’s sugar is produced in 17 states so we don’t have to depend on unreliable foreign countries for this vital ingredient.
  • Best of all, this success story costs taxpayers very little because sugar producers don’t receive government subsidy checks.
