Our partnership with Fairtrade helps to uplift women and create sustainable livelihoods. To coincide with Fairtrade Fortnight 2024, we are celebrating positive female empowerment seen in communities that benefit from Fairtrade, while also highlighting the need for greater gender equality. Since 2008, Tate & Lyle Fairtrade licensed sales in the UK have generated an estimated £32 million in Fairtrade Premium – an additional sum of money that goes to the Fairtrade Producer Organisations and is democratically decided how to invest, depending on the priorities of farmers. Key initiatives funded by Tate & Lyle Sugars Fairtrade Premium have included a programme focused on female empowerment by The Progressive Sugarcane Producers Association. This pilot project engaged women across four communities in Belize, providing them with essential skills in financial literacy, economic opportunities, and hands-on training.

We're very excited to announce the launch of our first original Lyle's Golden Syrup flapjacks, rolling out across UK supermarkets this month.   Flapjacks have long been a popular British treat, harkening back in origin to the 1600s. Since the introduction of Lyle’s Golden Syrup in 1883, our brand has been the key component in homemade flapjack recipes and today it is the number one baked format for the brand.   So, it's about time we created some ourselves! Our indulgent ready-to-eat flapjacks; delivering a well-rounded, enticing take on the well-loved British classic.   Our flapjacks are gloriously gooey and generous, made with the signature silky-smooth taste of Lyle’s Golden Syrup.   Would it be a push to say we're fashionably late? Available now in multipack at Sainsbury's and Ocado Retail. RRP £2.50

A message for our neighbours in Newham regarding emissions this weekend…   This weekend at Thames Refinery, we will be restarting and testing the performance of a new gas turbine. From Saturday 15th to Monday 17th June, it is possible that some smoke and fumes may be noticeable coming from Thames Refinery chimneys. This will be temporary, is likely to last a few hours and we will do our best to keep it to an absolute minimum.   Specifically, we are testing the turbine operating on its secondary fuel at low power output. The normal, long term operating mode of the equipment will not result in smoke or fumes. The smoke is no cause for alarm, and we are communicating with stakeholders and the local community.   Should you need to reach out to us, please visit https://lnkd.in/evYqNbtJ, our dedicated portal for engaging with local residents.   Tate & Lyle Sugars works to continually improve our environmental sustainability and performance. In line with this we currently have a major project to upgrade our combustion plant at Thames Refinery including the installation of the new gas turbine. This will reduce emissions and improve air quality for all. This is just one step in an ongoing long-term emissions reduction and sustainability program.
