Our Corporate Responsibility roadmap

Anchored in the Group’s DNA since its creation, Sodexo’s corporate responsibility is expressed through the Better Tomorrow 2025 roadmap. Responding to present and future challenges, it drives the deployment of our actions and measures their impact in the 64 countries where Sodexo operates.

The nine commitments are consistent with the most material issues identified through the materiality process. They are based on tangible and measurable objectives that allow all of its entities to monitor and drive progress.

Faced with the constant increase in the number of people who suffer from hunger, Sodexo reaffi rms its commitment and determination to act through Stop Hunger, its main philanthropic cause. Thus the title of the commitment as a corporate citizen in favor of individuals has been changed from “Fight hunger and malnutrition” to “Act sustainably for a hunger-free world”. This commitment, which is fully in line with the United Nations’ Zero Hunger Sustainable Development Goal, strengthens the notion of sustainability and Sodexo’s willingness to act in the long term. The actions and indicators associated with this commitment have not been impacted by these changes.

In addition, the “500,000 women in communities educated through job training centers” objective has been reformulated to better reflect the actions Sodexo takes in support of women empowerment without limiting itself to training. The new, more ambitious goal is: “500,000 empowered women in communities”.
