British Sugar granted Royal Warrant by His Majesty King Charles III

British Sugar, which operates a factory in Newark, has been granted a Royal Warrant of appointment by His Majesty King Charles III.

The honour continues a long association with the Royal Household as British Sugar had previously held the Royal Warrant from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II since 1972.

Each year, the company processes over 8m tonnes of locally grown sugar beet into around 1.2m tonnes of sugar.

A statement from British Sugar, said: “We are extremely proud to continue our commitment to uphold the highest standards of service, quality, excellence, and craftsmanship, which unites all Royal Warrant holders.”

A Royal Warrant is one of the highest accolades a business can achieve, underpinning the high standards and quality.

British Sugar will now, once again, be able to display the Royal Arms on their products, packaging, and stationery.

Commenting on the news, Joanne Corry, managing director of The Silver Spoon Company, said: “We are extremely honoured to have been granted a Royal Warrant from His Majesty King Charles III, continuing the great legacy we had with the late Queen Elizabeth II.

“We are proud to supply the Royal Household, and as the nation’s favourite brand of sugar, we remain committed to supporting British farmers who grow sugar beet in their fields year after year.”

Keith Packer, managing director of British Sugar, added: “This recognition is testament to our heritage in the Eastern region, the dedication of everyone across the sugar supply chain from farm to fork, our ambitions as we look to the future and our public commitments to sustainable and responsible business practices.”
