Gunawan Jusuf: Water Scarcity and Sugar Group Success

Since he has been the CEO of the Sugar Group Companies, Gunawan Jusuf has helped to create enormous growth of Gulaku, which is a premium, commercial, refined sugar product that is a household name all over Indonesia. However, he has also overseen the creation and proliferation of many other products.

However, in early 2016, Gunawan Jusuf published Blue Gold, a book that discusses in frank detail the problems the world faces when it comes to the relative scarcity and the high value of water as our most important and precious commodity. His business background gives him a better idea than most how precious and valuable natural resources can be. Not only is water crucial to the lives of humans everywhere, it is also essential to his business.

CEO Gunawan Jusuf oversees a collection of Indonesia-based companies that grow and refine sugar that is used in a variety of sugar products, many of which are enormously popular. In addition to plantations and refineries throughout Indonesia, Sugar Group Companies operates from nearly a dozen offices located throughout the country.
