    The Leśmierz sugar factory was one of the first in the Kingdom of Poland. Despite the changing vicissitudes of fate, it operated for 170 years. Its presence had a huge impact on Leśmierz, previously a small farm. In just a few decades, the agricultural estate was transformed into a factory estate with a typically urban character. The idea of establishing a sugar factory was probably born in Wilhelm Werner's head in the 1830s. Busy running a dyeworks in Zgierz and Ozorków, Wilhelm sent his younger brother Bogusław to France and financed his studies in the field of sugar production. Knowledge of sugar production techniques was highly valued at the time. In 1838, Bogusław came into possession of the agricultural estate of Leśmierz and in the same year, with the help of his brother and a technician brought from Aachen, Ludwik Teison, he began building a sugar factory.
