About SODEXO

Sodexo is a global leader in business and institutional services, with core expertise in catering, integrated facilities management and related outsourced solutions. The group provides food services, building and technical maintenance, cleaning, security, energy management, reception services and procurement solutions through Entegra. Its value proposition is centered on a combined “Food and Services” model that is designed to improve everyday experiences for users in workplaces, schools, healthcare settings, leisure venues and industrial environments. Sodexo positions itself as the global leader in sustainable food and valued experiences at every moment of life. The company was founded in Marseille on March 9, 1966 by Pierre Bellon, and that historical origin remains a defining part of its corporate identity. What started as a specialist in collective catering gradually evolved into a worldwide services group, extending beyond food into higher-value support services and workplace experience solutions. Over time, Sodexo broadened its scope through organic growth and selective strategic development, building a business that is increasingly focused on recurring, resilient outsourced service needs. Today, Sodexo is organized around two major complementary pillars: food services and facilities management. Food services include meal design, on-site catering programs, nutrition-oriented offerings and customized culinary experiences. Facilities management covers a wide range of operational services that support site performance and occupant wellbeing. The group serves clients across corporate, healthcare, education, public sector, leisure and specialized industrial environments, making it a key partner for organizations seeking integrated service solutions. Sodexo has a highly diversified international footprint and operates across many countries, with a broad client base spanning multiple regions. This geographic diversification reduces exposure to any single market and supports the resilience of its business model. The group also emphasizes sustainability, operational efficiency and customer experience quality, which have become central themes in outsourced services. A notable recent point is that Sodexo has described its current phase as one focused on commercial acceleration and operational execution after a strategic refocusing on its core Food and Services activities.
