Abstract
Sodexo, a leading provider of on-site service solutions, has won a five year deal worth almost £2.5m to provide catering and hospitality services at New College Swindon in Wiltshire.
The deal will see Sodexo providing meals to up to 7,000 students and college staff every year, with a range of appetising menus based on a variety of different concepts, including a Costa Coffee shop, bowl hot food offer, brunch all day breakfast concept, street handheld snacks, and a C Store retail shop. Sodexo's catering and hospitality teams will provide increased flexibility in meal options, which will ensure that students and college staff can eat the meals they want, at a time convenient for them, whether that's before, after or in between lectures and seminars. Debbie Owens, operations director for Sodexo Education said: "This is a great win for Sodexo and we are delighted that New Swindon College has chosen us to provide all its catering and hospitality services. "We have especially developed new food concepts to meet the needs of students and staff on site, and they were impressed by our local food sourcing strategy. The location of Sodexo Education's headquarters in Swindon also helped to seal the agreement as New College Swindon wanted a readily available support team to meet their day-to-day requirements. "With our client recently refurbishing and extending the premises, we look forward to further opportunities and developing the contract."
