In North America alone, we serve 13,000 client sites. Wherever we work, our dedication to making every day a better day for people and organizations comes from one goal — to positively improve Quality of Life.
Quality of Life is central to the performance and growth of individuals and organizations. Working from this perspective, Sodexo has redefined how to best serve our clients’ complex needs across the industries we serve: Corporate, Education, Government, Healthcare, Senior Living, Sports and Leisure and Energy & Resources.

Sodexo improves Quality of Life by:
 

• Ensuring the people that we serve — corporate and government employees, healthcare patients and providers, students and faculty, sports and leisure venue attendees, retirees and more — have access to nutritious meals.
• Creating healthy and productive environments for businesses, government agencies, hospitals, schools, retirement communities and other venues.
• Helping people live a healthy lifestyle. Sodexo offers an array of programs that help them enjoy healthier lifestyles, such as our award-winning Mindful program and our on-the-go OPT Healthy vending.
• Contributing to the economic, social and environmental development of the communities where we operate.
