Sodexo’s contract in the Falkland Islands, which is worth €12m, will see the 175 strong Sodexo team continue to provide administration, catering, tailoring, laundry, dry cleaning, office and domestic cleaning services at a variety of sites where UK troops and their families are located across the islands.
In Cyprus, the 750 strong Sodexo team will continue to provide catering, retail, cleaning, waste services and logistics support at six bases across the island where troops and their families are deployed.
Paul Anstey, chief executive of Government, Sodexo UK & Ireland, commented: “We are delighted to have extended these two overseas contracts. We are proud of the service our teams deliver in support of the Armed Forces operations in these two important locations. The extension of these two contracts for a further two years reflects the strength of our partnership with the Ministry of Defence.”
Sodexo has worked with the British military for more than 30 years, focussing on the wellbeing and quality of life of the Armed Forces and their families.
