Case Study

Sodexo

The world in your hand

Sodexo are a multinational catering & support services company. In the UK three out of four FTSE 100 companies rely on Sodexo for cost-effective solutions to their employee or hospitality catering or to deliver support services. In the UK and Ireland, Sodexo employ 53,000 people in 3,500 contracts.

Constratega worked with Sodexo to devise and implement a CSR strategy badged as 'Community Concern' which would not only engage a significant number of employees but would raise health, lifestyle and nutritional awareness both in the workplace and the wider community and also dovetailed into the international initiative 'Stop Hunger.'

A key part of the strategy was the engagement of Sodexo Graduate Management Trainees to deliver Sodexo's Hrealthy Eating Programme in disadvantaged areas to educate children about health eating and balanced lifestyle issues.

Sodexo was awarded the Big Tick standard in the Business in the Community (BITC) Awards for Excellence for its successful Healthy Eating Programme in both 2004 and was re-accredited again in 2005.

'Constratega have been instrumental in assisting Sodexo in devising our initial strategy towards CSR and more importantly providing pragmatic solutions in delivering CSR in our chosen communities.'
