Our Cooperative

Owned by Growers, Driven by Purpose

How are we different? The farmers who grow the sugarbeets also own the company and its factories. More than a business—it’s a community-driven model where future-focused decisions safeguard family farms, local jobs, and small towns throughout the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota.

From Our Fields to Your Favorite Foods

That cold soda on a hot day? Your favorite candy bar? Chances are, they’re sweetened with American Crystal Sugar. Since 1890, we’ve been the ingredient that makes good things better—from neighborhood grocery shelves to the production lines of America’s most beloved food brands.

From raw materials to delivery, we uphold the highest standards, because when you’re part of people’s daily lives and treasured moments, only the closest thing to perfection will do.

In addition, North Dakota State University research reports the beet sugar industry supports nearly 20,000 jobs and contributes more than $6 billion to the regional economy.
