A Brazilian company wins in the Materials for distribution networks category
KRJ, a Brazilian company in the aerial distribution network connections segment, was one of the winners of the 16th edition of the CPFL Mais Valor 2025 Prize, promoted by the CPFL Energia Group, obtaining recognition in the Distribution Network Materials category.
The award, awarded earlier this month, brought together suppliers who demonstrated high performance and good practices between September 2024 and August 2025, based on a careful assessment based on technical, operational and management indicators. In total, more than 1,600 active suppliers were assessed, including national and multinational companies.
During the full-day event, 39 suppliers participated in panels and discussions on the challenges, opportunities and future of the electricity sector, in direct dialogue with CPFL Group executives and directors. In the evening, 46 strategic suppliers were rewarded, including KRJ.
“This award recognizes KRJ’s work, dedication and commitment to quality, punctuality and strict process control. It is recognition of continuous effort throughout the year,” says Marcelo Mendes, Managing Director of KRJ.
According to him, the result has all the more weight because it occurs in a unified evaluation model. “Today, all suppliers are in competition, regardless of their size or turnover, which places us alongside large groups and multinationals,” he commented.
For Fernanda Paciência, head of technology and communications at KRJ, this recognition reflects a difficult and highly competitive year. “We are always looking for the best performance, but understanding the level of rigor of the assessment makes this result even more meaningful. This is an in-depth and careful analysis carried out by a group that serves more than 10 million customers, covering the states of São Paulo, Rio Grande do Sul, Minas Gerais and Paraná.
The CPFL Mais Valor Award does not require registration: suppliers are continuously evaluated and are only informed when they become finalists or winners.
