Correction to this page please
Hi, I'm Claire and I work for Tate & Lyle Sugars. We’d like to request your help with a correction is made to this page, specifically, the line: “The company was formed in 1976, when the government of Guyana nationalised and merged the sugar estates operated by Booker Sugar Estates Limited, Tate and Lyle and Jessels Holdings to form the Guyana Sugar Corporation.” Tate & Lyle (in any guise/ownership) has never owned or invested in any plantation in Guyana. This is confirmed on the Guyana Sugar Corporation’s own website (https://guysuco.gy/our-company/) which states: “By 1967, there were eighteen (18) estates: serving eleven (11) factories, nine of which were owned and/or managed by Booker McConnell Limited, the other two, by the Demerara Company. In 1973, the ownership of the sugar industry was in the hands of two London-based companies – Jessels Securities which owned two factories and accounted for about fifteen percent (15%) of the total sugar production; five percent (5%) was produced by an independent Guyanese factory, owned by the Vieiras and eighty percent (80%) by Booker McConnell.” Once you and any other interested parties have reviewed our requested correction and the relevant sources, please could you remove any reference to Tate and Lyle on this page. Thank you. Sugarclc (talk) 09:23, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
