CAT | CENTRAL AZUCARERA DE TARLAC, INC.

Sector: INDUSTRIAL | Sub-Sector: FOOD, BEVERAGE & TOBACCO

Central Azucarera de Tarlac (CAT) was incorporated on June 19, 1927 to operate as an integrated manufacturing facility that processes sugar and all its by-products. Its business and facilities include the sugar milling and refinery, distillery and carbon dioxide plants located in Barrio San Miguel, Tarlac City. The sugar cane supply is sourced predominantly from the Tarlac district and a few in the nearby towns of Pampanga.

CAT's main products are raw and refined sugar, with the mill and refinery process also producing molasses as a by-product. The combined captive molasses are further processed in the distillery to produce alcohol. The various types of alcohol regularly produced and sold are rectified spirits (purified alcohol), absolute alcohol and denatured alcohol. The slops from the distillery are also captured by the carbon dioxide plant to produce liquid carbon dioxide also in tandem with the distillery.

The Company owns a 100% stake in Luisita Land Corporation (LLC), a domestic corporation engaged in developing, leasing, and selling real properties and other ancillary services. CAT, through LLC, provides property management, water distribution, and wastewater treatment series to locators of Luisita Industrial Park and residents of Las Haciendas de Luisita.
