Thailand’s Role in the Global Market

Thailand is reinforcing its position as the world’s #2 sugar exporter, with over 61% of its production exported. Key markets include China and ASEAN. As India restricts exports due to drought, Thailand has a golden opportunity to expand market share and increase revenue.

Industry Trends

Thai sugar production is expected to rise 14–20% thanks to favorable weather.
Revenue in 2025 is projected to grow, though global sugar prices may decline in 2026.
The global market is entering a surplus of over 7 million tons, yet Thailand maintains an edge through quality and consistent output.
Major Players in Thailand

Five major groups dominate over 54% of the market: Mitr Phol, Thai Roong Ruang, KBS, KSL, and KTIS.
However, there is room for new entrants focusing on quality differentiation and sustainability.
