Telefonica Brasil S.a.
A maker of mobile and fixed telecom services for everyday Brazilians, Telefónica Brasil runs the country's largest mobile network under the Vivo brand, offering voice and data plans to consumers and businesses. It was born in 1998 when Spanish giant Telefónica bought Telesp, São Paulo's state phone operator, during Brazil's telecom privatization, and later folded the Vivo cell carrier into itself. The Vivo name means "alive" or "lively" in Portuguese, chosen to suggest energy and a living connection to the digital world.
