6th Annual Kingsman EU Sugar Seminar Geneva

Bigger, Better and More Valuable in 2016

Market participants’ interest in the European sugar market has grown sharply as we edge closer to 2017 and the end of the quota system.

Global players are wondering about the impact of the additional availability of sugar in the marketplace. With only one marketing year remaining, changes are very much underway but many questions remain.

Having quickly gathered momentum, the annual Kingsman EU Sugar Seminar will continue to highlight the key issues surrounding quota reform, draw out the key implications for those involved, both regionally and globally, and give you an expert point of view to support informed decision making.

This seminar helps 200+ producers, refiners, traders and buyers understand trends, risks and issues within the EU sugar industry from those at the forefront.

Key topics explored in 2016:
•Will European producers increase production in 2017?
