Group profile Illovo is Africa's biggest sugar producer and has extensive agricultural and manufacturing operations in six African countries. The group produces raw and refined sugar for local, regional, EU, USA and world markets from sugar cane supplied by its own agricultural operations and from independent outgrowers who supply cane to Illovo's factories.
