The Future of Rum in Suriname

The new plant combines state-of-the-art process technology with more than half a century of experience in producing high-quality alcoholic beverages. Through extensive automation, precise process control, and energy-efficient systems, we achieve an even higher level of consistency, quality, and efficiency while preserving the character and authenticity of our products. The investment also marks a significant expansion of our production capabilities. In addition to premium rum, SAB can produce its well-known neutral alcohol for pharmaceutical applications. The technology also offers the flexibility to develop and produce different rum styles, as well as other premium distilled spirits such as gin, vodka, and whiskey.

With this investment, SAB creates a solid foundation for further growth, innovation, and international development. The new installation supports our ambition to continue meeting the highest quality standards, further increase operational efficiency, and support our sustainability goals through lower energy consumption and optimal use of raw materials.

The new fermentation and distillation plant underscores SAB's ambition to remain at the forefront of the regional beverage industry. The project connects Surinamese craftsmanship with world-class technology and forms the basis for a new generation of premium drinks, produced in Suriname for regional and international markets.
