CEFS Economic Opportunity is a sustainable European sugar industry that employs approximately 24,000 highly skilled workers in rural areas, providing much-needed employment opportunities. The industry is committed to reducing its environmental impact and has already reduced factory emissions by 59% between 1990 and 2021. CEFS relies on the energetic self-use of biomass, particularly own-produced from residues and waste, to transition to more sustainable fuels. In addition, the sugar produced by CEFS plays a vital role in our food, providing the necessary carbohydrates for our brains and energy for our organs.
CEFS is dedicated to meeting the objectives of the EU Green Deal and ensuring the sustainability of the sugar industry. The sector ensures that nothing goes to waste in beet sugar processing, finding uses for every part of the beet. Water is reused in factory processes, the pulp is processed into animal feed or biogas, and molasses is used in animal feed or as a fermentation feedstock. CEFS is a leading player in the European sugar industry, contributing to the economy, the planet, and our food.
