Said Neil Barrett, Sodexo Group Senior Vice President, Corporate Responsibility: “The challenge gets harder each year to stay ahead of our peers, who are doing more and more in the sustainability space. This best-in-class distinction demonstrates that Sodexo’s efforts and performance continue to be recognised. We are striving to anchor sustainability into all aspects of our business and everything we do.
