Mauritius fulfills one-third of the quota and European countries are responsible for the 90 percent of sugar production in Mauritius.
However, in recent years, the EU countries are reducing the importing of sugar from Mauritius and the price goes down from 632 Euros to 400 Euros per ton. In that case, the sugar business in Mauritius is going to face a major challenge as the production price for sugar is higher in Mauritius compared to other ACP countries.
The price for producing sugar is also higher than the producing sugar in Brazil. For this reason, the government in Mauritius also takes preventive action which is known as the five years sugar sector strategic plan and the aim of the plan is to rationalize the sugar industry by decreasing the number of the sugar factory and thus cut the labor forces.
