About
Umfolozi Sugar Mill (USM) is a sugar mill in Zululand, KwaZulu-Natal, about 25 km from St Lucia in the farming area around Mtubatuba. The mill supports small-scale local cane growers and processes the rest of its cane from the Umfolozi Flats. It employs around 350 people, most from the local community. The company already produces renewable electricity, which it exports to the national grid and sells to third-party customers. It is also looking at expanding renewable electricity, bioethanol and sustainable aviation fuel as markets allow. Its community investment focuses on early childhood development, mathematics, science and engineering education, and it says it contributes to the wider area's upliftment. The mill operates in a deeply rural district of KwaZulu-Natal where poverty is widespread.
