Why Source Sugar and Ethanol Directly from a Brazilian Mill

Buyers can source Brazilian sugar and ethanol through layers of intermediaries — or directly from the mill that produces it. For many refineries, traders and industrial buyers, mill-direct is the better choice. Here is why.

Origin certainty

When you buy from the producing mill, you know exactly where your product comes from. Grupo Bazan is the export identity of two neighbouring mills in Pontal, São Paulo — Usina Bazan and Usina Bela Vista — so every tonne traces back to a known unit.

One accountable supplier

Mill-direct means a single counterpart is accountable for specifications, certification documentation and follow-up. There is no diffusion of responsibility across a chain of traders; if you have a question about a shipment, you ask the producer.

Traceability and certification

Both units hold Bonsucro certification and São Paulo state environmental good-practice certification. Buying direct gives your compliance team a clean documentation trail from a certified producer.

Two units, resilient supply

  • Combined crystal-sugar capacity of roughly 75,000 bags per day.
  • VHP raw sugar, crystal sugar and both fuel ethanol grades.
  • Authorized to export ethanol to the United States.

Two neighbouring mills under one export desk mean consistent availability across the season and a single, simple relationship for the buyer.
