The Evolution of
Citro Oetomo Syndicate
The company, founded by Endruw Samasta in Jakarta, has been transformed since 2012 after experiencing several changes in company and member names, finally in 2020 it was rebranded as Citro Oetomo Syndicate.
"The name Citro Oetomo is derived from the Javanese language which means the prime view. Based on this philosophical concept, Citro Oetomo proudly presents this philosophy as the company's goal to provide an ultimate point of view or way of thinking."
We continue to pursue Citro's goal of developing what was originally an individual thought into a collective primary understanding. We believe with this strong value, it will eventually grow into Citro Oetomo that will become a reference for everyone.
