A damning new report reveals that forced labor still thrives in Dominican Republic sugarcane fields owned by Central Romana Corporation — a U.S.-bound sugar giant tied to Florida Crystals’ Fanjul family. After three years of investigation, the Corporate Accountability Lab exposes workers trapped in fear, denied wages, retirement, and basic rights — some even stateless. Despite past U.S. import bans (reversed last year) and Department of Labor findings of inhumane conditions, Central Romana denies wrongdoing. Human rights advocates are now demanding the U.S. reinstate the ban and push for corporate accountability — including fair pay, union rights, and government enforcement — or face the consequences of complicity in global exploitation.
