Striving to attain sustainable growth in every country it operates, Kordsa was awarded the "Indonesia Most Powerful Companies (IMPCA) 2017" prize. The IMPCA is an award granted to the best companies, listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchange according to Warta Economy based on their performance over the last three years. The selection was conducted by identifying the financial performance of companies listed on the Indonesian Stock Exchange grouped by industrial subcategory by the Economic Research Team. Using financial indicators, the research team then produced a list of candidate companies that added value to the economy.
Kordsa, listed among the country’s top 100 companies by one of Indonesia's biggest economics magazines Infobank, received this award from the Indonesian Economy Minister. Kordsa, which was selected the “Export Star of the Year” in Indonesia in 2016, had also received the "Best Employee" award in Indonesia as the project leader who carried out the project "Safety Experience Center”.
