Odebrecht S.A.
 PROFILE
Pulp is more than just fiction for Odebrecht. Plans for a giant pulp mill are among many global activities of the holding company, which has nearly 200 subsidiaries and affiliates working in 14 countries. The company's engineering and construction services include heavy construction and specialized technology projects, electromechanical structures, and offshore drilling services. Odebrecht's chemical divisions produce polyethylenes and other thermoplastics. Toll road and bridge operations, energy transmission, and sanitation make up the company's infrastructure and public services division. The planned pulp mill, a joint venture with Finland-based Stora Enso, will produce 830,000 metric tons of pulp a year.
