About ProSugar.cOm.au
The Proserpine region was first settled by Europeans in 1861 and the Proserpine Central Sugar Mill was established in 1897. The Mill was subscribed by the Government and built under the Sugar Works Guarantee Act 1893. A large debt and lack of throughput meant that the Mill very quickly got into financial difficulty and in 1900 management of the Mill was handed to the Government.
