CGR Doña Juana S.A E.S.P

What CGR Doña Juana S.A E.S.P does

CGR Doña Juana S.A. E.S.P is a Colombian sanitary landfill operator headquartered in Bogotá, founded in 1988 and employing approximately 275 people. It operates a 596-hectare landfill site that processes roughly 6,700 tonnes of solid waste per day, serving as the primary disposal site for Bogotá under a concession contract with the Unidad Administrativa Especial de Servicios Públicos (UAESP). The company also receives waste from Cundinamarca municipalities, bringing system throughput to roughly 4.5 million tonnes per year across its principal concession.

The company's core technical capabilities span sanitary landfill engineering, biogas capture (operated under a separate BioGas concession), and circular-economy waste processing — specifically a Construction and Demolition Waste (RCD) facility with reported processing capacity of 400 tonnes per hour, operational since April 2024. CGR Doña Juana is ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 certified and is described as a pioneer in seismic monitoring for landfills in South America. Its environmental license is valid through the first half of 2029, with a life-extension study underway.

Revenue mechanics are concession-based and regulated: the Bogotá disposal tariff is set under Colombian Commission of Regulation of Drinking Water and Sanitation (CRA) Resolution 843 of 2018, providing visibility on price but capping upside. The company is expanding its customer base through municipal partnerships (notably Ibagué in October 2025) and adjacent revenue lines including the RPCC (RCD processing) platform and its biogas concession counterparty relationship, diversifying away from pure landfill tipping fees.
