Sodexo Overview

Pro stress-test →

Sodexo is one of the largest food service companies globally, operating in 45 countries with annual sales exceeding EUR 20 billion. Food services remain the largest business segment, contributing 66% of revenue in 2024. The company also provides facilities management and operates Sodexo Live!, managing venues and major events.

Strategic Profile

Pro stress-test →

Sodexo's model rests on operating on-premises catering facilities, rather than centralized industrial kitchens. Sodexo has its own group purchasing organization, or GPO, Entegra, with annual purchasing of over EUR 37 billion. Recently, in November 2025, Sodexo appointed Thierry Delaporte as chief executive officer, with Sophie Bellon remaining chairwoman of the board.
