Description

The Centrale Suiker Maatschappij later CSM was formed in 1919 to own a majority of the privately owned Dutch beet sugar factories (Oud Gastel, Franeker, Gorinchem, Halfweg, Oudenbosch, Oud Beierland, Rosendaal, Standaarbuiten, Statendam, Steenbergen, Werkendam and Zevenbergen) and one refinery in Amsterdam (Wester Suiker-Raffineraderij). The only surviving factories not forming part of this corporation were cooperatively owned factories that also over the years joined forces to form Suiker Unie. The company expanded beyond sugar from 1968 (lactic acid, confectioneries, bakery supply products, etc.).  The sugar business (sold to Suiker Unie) and the branded consumer goods were sold out off by 2007. Today the company has renamed itself Corbion and offers food ingredients as well as biomedical materials, bioplastics and biochemicals but is still listed on the Amsterdam stock exchange.
