Imperial Sugar

Imperial Sugar is a major U.S. sugar producer and marketer with refining operations in California, Georgia and Louisiana. They are currently headquartered in Sugar Land, Texas, to the southwest of Houston, which is named for the company. The company is the oldest continuously running business in Texas with roots going back to 1843. Up until 1988 the company had only one plant, at its original location in Texas, when they purchased the Holly Sugar Corporation, a beet processor headquartered in Colorado Springs. Since that initial acquisition the company has made several more that effectively doubled the corporation's size each time. The company no longer refines sugar at its original plant in Sugar Land but their corporate headquarters are still located in its founding city.
