Caldwell Equipment  (Buildings & Land)

 

SLSC owns three sugar processing facilities. These facilities are located at Caldwell in Lafourche Parish, Glenwood in Assumption Parish and St. James in St. James Parish. The Caldwell and Glenwood facilities were closed some years ago and the entire processing capability was centered at the St. James facility. Some of the equipment from the Caldwell and Glenwood facilities has either been sold or transferred to St. James. An effort is being made to maintain updated listings of the equipment, buildings and land at each of the facilities. Not all the equipment is described below. As more information becomes available it will be added to this website.
