Kagera Sugar was handed over to Sugar Industries Limited (SIL, a local Tanzanian company associated with Super Group of Companies) in 2001. The privatisation is part of the government's Economic Reform Programme. SIL now manages the company using the expertise and experience of The Agricultural Consultancy Services (Mauritius) Limited (ACSL). The new management's first focus was on the rehabilitation and expansion of the company; promotion of the company and transfer of technology and management skills to the local workforce without forgetting improved care of the environment.
