This is for the company -private or public- running a public utility supply service, for example electricity, gaz or sewer system. I have found "statutory undertaker" in Termium but am not happy with the Bristish meaning of undertaker... Thanks a million

concession holder
I've done a couple of big translations lately on this subject relative to mains water supply. Fortunately (for me!), the French often consisted of a summary of publicly-available English-language press releases from the big companies that operate in this field. And these press releases nearly always talk about "concession holders".

Do a google on [\"concession holder\" +<a company of your choice>] and you\'ll see hits a-plenty (e.g. Thames, Suez, etc)
