Case Study: Transforming the Soft Drink Industry with Nesugar Cane Syrups
Industry Challenge
Major soft drink brands have traditionally relied on granulated sugar in their production processes, facing several operational and financial challenges:
- High liquefying processing and labor costs
- Significant waste percentages
- Expensive infrastructure investments for sugar processing and syrup preparation
- Strict pest control requirements due to solid sugar storage
- Long preparation, filtering, and pH adjustment times before sugar is ready for use
These inefficiencies increase production costs, extend processing times, and require additional capital investments that impact profitability.
The Nesugar Solution
By integrating Nesugar, a pre-liquefied and ready-to-use cane sugar syrup, soft drink manufacturer clients have achieved a transformative shift in efficiency, cost savings, and operational agility.
✅ Reduced Labor Costs – Less manual labor required for syrup preparation.
✅ Greater Efficiency – Nesugar is ready to mix with concentrates immediately, reducing processing time.
✅ Elimination of Infrastructure Investments – Companies avoided multi-million dollar investments in sugar liquefaction plants, which had an ROI of over seven years and did not align with their investment policies.
✅ Space Optimization – Instead of dedicating space to liquid sugar processing, companies expanded their bottling capacity for higher production output.
✅ Financial Benefits – In markets where refined sugar manufacturers demand advance payments of 30 to 60 days, at Caribbean Specialty Ingredients we provide attractive credit terms for qualified clients.
✅ Direct Cost Savings – Nesugar offers a lower net cost per kilogram compared to refined sugar, delivering immediate financial benefits.
