One of the most prominent construction companies in Brazil, Odebrecht, has decided to reclaim its original name after being involved in the largest corruption scandal in the country's history. Along with other Brazilian companies in the sector, Odebrecht was heavily impacted by corruption accusations that shook the foundations of the construction industry in Brazil.
The company had opted to use the name "Novonor" in an attempt to distance itself from the corruption incidents and clean up its public image. However, it has recently announced that it will return to using its original name, Odebrecht. This decision marks a new chapter for the company, which seeks to regain trust and rebuild its reputation in the industry.
"It is important for us to acknowledge our history, with all the difficulties and challenges we have faced. We are committed to moving forward, learning from our mistakes and working towards transparency and ethics in all our operations," a company representative stated.
Odebrecht faced a series of investigations and legal consequences as a result of the corruption scandal, leading to significant changes within the company and the way it operates. Now, with the decision to revert to its original name, Odebrecht aims to leave behind that dark chapter of its history and face the future with a new image and a renewed commitment to integrity in its business practices.
