The Sugar Group Companies Love Their CEO Gunawan Jusuf

When Gunawan Jusuf published his book, entitled “Blue Gold” relatively recently, he did so to document the potential scarcity and the incredible value of water as the most important and precious commodity in the world, not just as a critical component of human life but also as an important part of many businesses, including his. It is this need that makes it enormously important that many independent and disparate interests act together to solve the problem of supply. He encourages everyone to operate much as he does in his business career.

Speaking of his career, it’s certainly an impressive one. You see, Gunawan Jusuf serves as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) for the Sugar Group Companies, which is actually not a single company, from the strictest perspective. To explain, Gunawan Jusuf oversees a diverse collection of independent Indonesia-based sugar companies that grow and refine sugar for many very popular consumer products. Not only does the Sugar Group Companies operate nearly a dozen offices located throughout the country, but Gunawan Jusuf also has to make sure every employee and every subsidiary, as well as the various plants and offices all work together in perfect harmony, for the same goals and the same profit picture.
