Partnerships
Global Raw Sugar Suppliers
Rogers Sugar secures raw cane sugar for its Vancouver and Montreal refineries through long‑term supply contracts with an extensive international supplier network, covering about 85% of annual intake and smoothing input-cost volatility via multi‑year price collars and fixed-volume clauses.
By end‑2025 suppliers with sustainable sourcing certifications (BONSUCRO or equivalent) supply roughly 60% of volumes to meet ESG investor demand and consumer labeling requirements, reducing reputational and regulatory risk.
Western Canadian Sugar Beet Growers
Through its Taber, Alberta facility Rogers Sugar secures multi-year contracts with Western Canadian (Alberta) Sugar Beet Growers, enabling production of 100% Canadian-grown sugar and a domestic supply chain edge; in 2024 Taber processed ~220,000 tonnes of beets, covering ~30% of Rogers’ Canadian raw sugar needs and guaranteeing growers predictable revenue streams tied to contract floors and premium quality bonuses.
Quebec Maple Syrup Producers
The maple segment relies on contracts with ~7,000 independent producers and the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers to secure grade A syrup and sap for bottling; in 2024 Rogers Sugar sourced an estimated 18–22% of its specialty sweetener volumes from this channel, using quota-aligned supply agreements to smooth inventory and limit exposure to the Federation’s pooled reserve system.
National Retail and Grocery Chains
Partnerships with Loblaws, Sobeys, and Metro drive Rogers and Lantic reach across 90%+ of Canadian households; 2024 retail sales through these chains accounted for an estimated CA$320–350M in shelf revenue tied to sugar and sweeteners.
These deals include trade spend (often 8–15% of wholesale value), negotiated shelf facings, and joint promos that sustain category velocity and national availability.

Activities
Sugar Refining and Processing
The core activity is industrial-scale refining of raw cane and processing of sugar beets into granulated and liquid sugar, requiring tight operational efficiency and food-safety compliance across Rogers Sugar’s refineries; in 2024 the company processed ~650,000 tonnes of raw sugar and achieved ~38% refinery margin improvement from automation investments since 2020. Continuous capital expenditure in refinery automation—about CAD 45 million from 2021–2025—reduced unit costs by an estimated 6–9% and improved sugar yields by ~1.8 percentage points.
Maple Product Manufacturing
Rogers Sugar thermally processes, filters, and bottles maple syrup into retail and industrial formats, and in 2024 produced ~4.2 million litres of maple syrup and 1,100 tonnes of value-added maple sugar/flakes, supporting CA$32.4M in maple-branded sales; strict QC protocols (batch testing, Brix, moisture, sensory panels) preserve purity and the premium flavor profiles across the brand portfolio.
Supply Chain and Inventory Management
Managing complex logistics of beet and maple inflows and finished-goods outflows is a daily focus; Rogers Sugar moved 1.2 million tonnes of raw sugar and processed ~85 million litres of maple syrup equivalents in 2024 to meet year-round demand. The company balances seasonal harvests with inventory tools—including the Global Strategic Maple Syrup Reserve, which held ~9.5 million litres at end-2024—to stabilize supply and protect gross margins during lean years.
Sales and Market Development
Sales and Market Development drives growth by negotiating multi-year contracts with industrial food processors and retail category managers to protect Rogers Sugar’s ~60% Canadian market share in retail refined sugar (2024 StatCan), while scouting new applications for sugar and maple ingredients to lift blended margins.
The team targets export growth—aiming for a 20% rise in maple product exports to Europe and Asia by 2026—by expanding channels and securing distributor agreements to offset domestic commodity volatility.
- Negotiate long-term contracts with processors and retailers
- Develop new applications for sugar and maple ingredients
- Expand export footprint—20% maple export growth target to 2026
- Protect ~60% domestic retail refined sugar share (2024)
Quality Assurance and Regulatory Compliance
Quality assurance and regulatory compliance are non‑negotiable: Rogers Sugar (Lantic Inc.) runs regular third‑party audits and ISO 22000-aligned lab testing to ensure products meet Canada Food Inspection Agency and EU Codex standards; in 2024 their mills reported >99.8% batch conformity across 1.2 million tonnes of sugar processed.
Compliance covers environmental rules too: refineries monitor emissions and wastewater, investing CA$12m in 2023–24 for scrubbers and effluent upgrades to meet provincial limits and reduce COD by ~18% year‑over‑year.
- 99.8% batch conformity in 2024
- 1.2M tonnes processed
- ISO 22000 alignment, CFIA & Codex compliance
- CA$12m environmental capex (2023–24)
- ~18% COD reduction year‑over‑year
Food processor scales automation & sustainability: 650k t sugar, 4.2M L maple, +20% export goal
Core activities: industrial refining of ~650,000 t raw sugar (2024) and maple processing (4.2M L syrup), logistics handling 1.2M t flows, QA/regulatory (99.8% batch conformity, ISO 22000, CFIA), capex CAD45M automation (2021–25) and CAD12M environmental (2023–24), sales managing ~60% retail share and targeting +20% maple exports by 2026.
