Sugar and rum factory in Dzoumogné
The sugar and rum factory on a plantation of about 1500 ha in Dzoumogné belonged to the Cougnac family until the mid-19th century and was taken over by Duperrier in 1864. It had a presumably manually operated Decauville railway. It was 1720 m long and had a gauge of. This indicates that it may have been laid by the Société J. F. Cail & Cie as early as 1880, when the factory building was constructed, to transport its steel girders and the steam boilers which had been imported from France. It was later used to ship the sugar and rum to the harbour. Production ceased in 1955.
