Sugar tycoon Alfonso Fanjul now open to investing in Cuba under right circumstances\'
2014-02-03 06:51:49| Sugar Industry News
Alfonso Fanjul fled Cuba as a young man, leaving behind his family\'s mansions and vast sugar-cane fields as they were being wrested away by the communist Castro regime. In exile in the United States, he built an even larger sugar empire, amassing one of North America\'s great fortunes and befriending members of Congress and presidents who benefited from his largesse. The sting of his family\'s forced departure from Cuba led him to become one of the principal funders of the U.S. anti-Castro movement.
