As part of the Illovo Group, Kilombero Sugar Company Limited- supports to deliver the Group purpose which is building a 'Thriving Community'. We believe that to be a successful company, we must be an invested citizen in the community in which we operate. Our focus therefore, is on creating an environment in which both our businesses and our communities thrive in a mutually-beneficial partnership. Most importantly, by keeping to our "shared value creation" mandate, we are committed to ensuring these thriving communities are able to sustain themselves well beyond our direct presence.

Illovo Thriving Community Purpose

Sugar Market Leader

Collectively represents the African melting pot of vibrant markets across the continent where we, together with the agricultural produce and manufactured goods derived from our Thriving Community, consistently serve our customers and consumers quality products in the format they require and at the price they can afford.

Community Connected

Collaborative and cooperative stimulation of economic activity, hand-in-hand with the people, civic structures, and the governments of our local communities, strengthens the growth and development of African nations.

Quality & Value Driven Industry

Building on our 125-year success in sugar and downstream product manufacture on the African continent, while actively encouraging innovative commercial community opportunities aligned to our core expertise, is a powerful combination invited by Africa's governments to unlock national growth in the countries in which our businesses operate.

Sustainable Agriculture

Creating value from local agricultural resources in a responsible, sustainable manner provides the opportunity for multiple stakeholders to share in the beneficial outcomes of commercially orientated community projects. Through Illovo's transfer of knowledge and its ability to facilitate community access to scarce resources, sugar cane becomes one of many agricultural crops contributing to rural economic growth.
