History.
The merged entity of today initially began as separate companies on both the east coast and west coast of Canada. The original Rogers Sugar company was established in Vancouver as the British Columbia Sugar Refining Company in 1890 by its American-born founder, Benjamin Tingley Rogers (1865–1918), whose father was president of E.J. Gay’s Sugar of New Orleans.
Atlantic Sugar Refineries was established in 1912 from the merger of three sugar refineries, including Acadia Sugar Refining Co. (established 1893 in Halifax), and later renamed as Lantic Sugar Limited. The company was owned from 1981 to 1990 by Steinberg's. In 1984, Lantic Sugar acquired St. Lawrence Sugar, which had been established in 1888 in Montreal. Lantic Inc. was created from the merger of Rogers Sugar and Lantic Sugar on June 30, 2008. It is best known to be one of the film location of the 2001 movie Cats & Dogs
