Sodexo is partnering with EAT to make its expertise in delivering healthy, science-based food choices more accessible to the public.
Rooted in a shared commitment to promote and inspire healthier and more sustainable eating, the new initiative will debut at The Stockholm Food Forum on 3rd and 4th October.
For Sodexo which serves more than 80 million consumers daily, partnering with EAT - a leading player in food system transformation, is a critical step in encouraging and accelerating the adoption of better food habits.
For EAT, it represents an opportunity to work with a global leader in foodservices with the knowledge and scale to turn science into practice.
Together, Sodexo and EAT aim to demonstrate that positive change in food systems is not only possible but already happening.
At the Forum, EAT and Sodexo will co-organise a dinner at the Quality Hotel Strawberry Arena during the Stockholm Food Forum to demonstrate how sourcing and cooking that prioritise nutrition and responsible choices can both delight guests and meet dietary needs.
Sodexo will also take an active role in key multi-stakeholder discussions at the Forum.
In particular, the Group will host a side event focused on moving from vision to on-the-ground implementation, engaging a broad ecosystem around more responsible food choices.
Tomas Alfred Røen, Chief Executive Officer of EAT, says: “We are excited to welcome Sodexo as a partner of the Stockholm Food Forum in driving the shift toward healthy and sustainable food systems.
Partnering with EAT represents an important step forward in our ambition to promote more conscious eating practices for people and the planet.
Sodexo’s operational expertise makes them an essential voice in translating science into action.”
By combining EAT’s scientific leadership with Sodexo’s global reach and expertise, we can help turn ambition into action.
This partnership also gives us the opportunity to engage with our clients and mobilise our wider stakeholder ecosystem.
That is how we can deliver real impact at scale.”
The partnership will showcase innovation in action, deepen Sodexo’s alignment with the forthcoming 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission findings and support the company’s sustainability goals.
Earlier this year Sodexo UK & Ireland published its first nutrition report, revealing the collaborative approach between its dietitians, nutritionists, chefs and supply chain as the recipe for success in developing nutritious, tasty meals that promote healthier lives every day.
The report outlines how science and data help shape menus that enable consumers to make healthier and more sustainable choices without compromising on taste.
