Sucrerie d'Anvaing was a beet sugar factory in the Hainaut village of Anvaing, and this note is a product of the currency collapse that followed Germany's August 1914 invasion of Belgium. With the National Bank's branch network disrupted and coin disappearing from circulation almost immediately, industrial and commercial enterprises across occupied Belgium began issuing their own emergency fractional notes — bons de nécessité — to keep local wage payments and small transactions moving.
Leherte-Courtin in Ronse printed a large number of these local emergency issues for firms across the region. The printer's proximity to the issuer mattered; paper and transport were not reliable luxuries in the autumn of 1914.
