Codesp officially changes name in line with international standards
Mar, 03, 2020 Posted by datamarnewsWeek 202011
Santos Port Authority (SPA) has changed its name in Portuguese from Companhia Docas do Estado de São Paulo (Codesp) to Autoridade Portuária de Santos S.A. The change is part of a strategy to revamp the company. The SPA president, Casemiro Tércio Carvalho, explained that the move is yet another measure to recover the port authority’s core purpose. “The initiative is part of a comprehensive process of strategic repositioning of the company”, stated the president.
Another reason for the change is that the name Codesp, although quite established in the region, communicated little outside the Baixada Santista. The name ‘Autoridade Portuária de Santos’ is intended exclusively for official documents. The name ‘Santos Port Authority’ is for all other uses as it aligns with the worldwide communication standard observed in other large ports that are non-English speaking countries, such as Port of Rotterdam in the Netherlands and Port of Antwerp in Belgium.
