Sugar Company of Jamaica

The Sugar Company of Jamaica (SCJ), primarily operating through SCJ Holdings Limited, is a government-owned entity in Jamaica responsible for the management of the nation's sugar lands and legacy industry assets. Historically, the company was the primary manufacturer of raw sugar and molasses, operating several major estates and factories across the island. Following the privatization of the sugar sector, the company's mandate shifted toward land management, facilitating the lease of former sugar lands for agricultural diversification and commercial development. SCJ Holdings continues to oversee the transition of the sugar industry while supporting sustainable land use and economic growth in rural Jamaican communities.
