We’re a global company that touches millions of people’s lives every day. Our size and reach gives us the opportunity to minimize environmental impacts in hundreds of locations in our operations and in our communities.  

Green Thread, our environmental sustainability commitment, symbolizes our approach to weave environmental sustainability into everything we do. We make progress every day on our commitment to source responsibly, minimize waste, operate efficiently, and optimize transportation and fleet. 

We constantly seek to improve our own practices, and we offer our expertise to find practical solutions for thousands of clients worldwide. And, we don’t stop there. We measure the impact of our work and hold ourselves accountable to always do better. 

Community Impact and Philanthropy

Philanthropic support is a core part of our community involvement efforts. Financial and in-kind donations are essential in helping nonprofit organizations sustain programs and meet their missions. 

We connect our philanthropic support to both our mission of enriching and nourishing lives and to our expertise. Nutrition and health and wellness are priorities in our thousands of food service locations. Helping people find meaningful work is also a focus for us. We hire thousands of people every year and we’re connected to growing industries, like hospitality, healthcare, education and leisure.
