Manuel Rionda (1854–1943) was a Spanish-born, US-based sugar baron in Cuba.

Early life

Manuel Rionda was born in 1854 in Noreña, Spain.[1][2] The Rionda family began investing in Cuban sugar in the 1860s.[3] By 1870, when Rionda was sixteen, Rionda emigrated to Cuba.[2]

Career

Rionda co-founded the Czarnikow-Rionda Company with Julius Caesar Czarnikow in 1909.[4] By 1915, he co-founded the Cuba Cane Sugar Company with his family.[2]

Rionda was the owner of sugar plantations in Cuba.[1] Prior to the 1930s, Czarnikow-Rionda Company "sold 40 per cent of Cuba's sugar".[2]

Personal life

Rionda married Harriet Clarke.[1] They resided at Rio Vista estate, a 300-acre estate in Alpine, New Jersey.[1][5] They had no children, but they raised his orphaned nephew, Manuel Enrique Rionda, who later resided on the Glen Goin estate in Alpine with his wife, Ellen Goin.[1]

Death and legacy

Rionda died in 1943.[6] A tower designed by architect Charles Rollinson Lamb on his former estate still stands in Alpine, New Jersey, one of the most affluent zipcodes in the United States.[7][8]
