After the end of the EU sugar quota system from 1 October 2017, expansion of isoglucose production will be possible. Currently production is limited to 720,000 t in nine EU countries, which is divided among six producers. Production is concentrated in Central and Southeastern Europe, far away from the main consumption areas, where high sugarbeet yields make sugar production very competitive. The possibilities for isoglucose production expansion are discussed. An 1 mn t production increase, to about 2 mn t of sugar equivalent, seems likely after 2017 despite the high beet sugar production surplus currently seen on the EU market.
