Most of the sugar colonies were established in Brazil and the Caribbean where majority of the African slaves were taken in and pushed into labor. The working conditions were horrible mostly because of the process of cane sugar production. This is why the slaves were forced to do this type of job because of the harsh conditions and since Europeans did not think they were also humans.
The process of cane sugar was that it had to be in a hot area where the cane sugar would be produced in large scales. Not only were slaves used for the production of cane sugar but also tobacco, cotton, rice and indigo.
