Purpose
In December 2021, you presented Sodexo’s purpose. What motivated this initiative?
Since it was founded in 1966, Sodexo has had a dual mission, one that was considered especially pioneering for its time and remains perfectly relevant today: to improve the quality of life of our employees and those we serve, and contribute to the economic, social and environmental progress in the communities where we operate.
Building on this heritage and staying true to the spirit of progress that is one of our founding values, we were keen to go further.
We wanted to reaffirm the value of the everyday work carried out by our teams and highlight what drives us by giving Sodexo a corporate purpose.
"We create a better everyday for everyone to build a better life for all": our purpose expresses who we have always been, what has guided our growth since day one, and how we envision that growth for the years to come.
This purpose is embodied in our brand tagline: "Sodexo. It all starts with the everyday". This tagline reflects our firm belief that tangible action and daily interaction can have a positive impact on people’s lives, communities and the planet.
