Mackay Sugar is Australia’s second-largest sugar milling company, based in Racecourse, Queensland, operating three mills at Racecourse, Marian and Farleigh. Its product scope includes raw sugar as the core offering, complemented by refined sugar through a 25% stake in a joint refining venture with Wilmar, plus by-products like molasses and renewable energy. The company originated in 1988 as a cooperative formed by merging five milling co-operatives and acquiring Pleystowe Mill, and it later became Mackay Sugar Limited in 2008. The corporate office sits on the first floor of the main administration building at Racecourse Mill on Peak Downs Highway. In June 2026 Mackay Sugar reported a cyber security incident affecting some operations, leading to temporary shutdowns of mills and disruption to the cane harvest in the region.
