Value Creation
at the Core of our Mission
A long-standing player in the Mauritian economy, Constance Group has grown from its agricultural roots since 1882. Guided by a strong entrepreneurial mindset, the Group operates locally and internationally across four clusters: Agriculture, Hospitality, Real Estate and Investment. With deep ties to the East of the island, we harvest 90,000 tonnes of sugarcane each year, operate 11 hotels and 3 golf courses across the region, develop prime real estate projects and invest in strategic sectors.
Shaped by Mauritian heritage, and supported by 3,700 employees across diverse operations, we uphold high standards and a consistent commitment to responsible development. Creating value across each of our businesses remains at the heart of our mission.
