Better Tomorrow 2025
We know we can only meaningfully improve lives if we make good decisions. And that means thinking about the needs of tomorrow as well as today. That is why we monitor our progress through our corporate responsibility roadmap, Better Tomorrow 2025. It gives us, and all those we work with, a shared focus on our long-term future.
Impacting Individuals
health
Mindful offerings meet stringent nutritional criteria based on the Dietary Guidelines for Americans. Each meal part is limited in calories, has fewer than 30% of calories as fat, fewer than 10 % of calories as saturated fat, and is restricted in sodium and cholesterol. Chefs in our test kitchen develop recipes to meet these criteria deliciously! Look for the Mindful icon to indulge in the healthy and delicious items offered at each meal.
Simple Servings is our allergen-safe dining option for customers with food allergies, gluten intolerance, or those who prefer delicious, simple foods. The Simple Servings station offers food free from common allergens: peanuts, tree nuts, shellfish, wheat, soy, milk products, and eggs.
Vegan offerings contain no meat, fish, eggs, milk, or other animal-derived products such as honey. Look for the menu icon to find vegan items daily.
Menu items with the vegetarian icon contain no meat, fish, poultry, or meat products such as soup bases. Our vegetarian offerings meet the needs of lacto-ovo vegetarians and may include eggs and/or dairy products. Vegan items are also offered for those vegetarians who avoid all animal products.
HUNGER
Sodexo Servathon is an essential part of our community service efforts. Sodexo sets aside the month of April for its employees across the nation to join forces to fight hunger in their communities. Employees gain gratifying experiences while developing critical team-building skills. Some activities may include fundraisers, canned food drives, donations of surplus food, volunteering at food banks, and signing up for payroll deductions to support the Sodexo Stop Hunger Foundation.
To help combat hunger on campus, we donate to the campus food pantry.
Impacting Communities
sourcing
All of our eggs are sourced from cage-free hens.
We work closely with local produce distributors to maximize the fruits and vegetables purchased from local farms. We also purchase from local dairies and bakeries.
100% of fish and seafood sourced and promoted by Sodexo is sustainable. That means we will not source or promote red-listed fish or seafood, and all orange-listed fish or seafood will respect certain specifications.
From field to fork and without ever leaving campus. It doesn't get more local than food grown right here. We are proud to work with the campus community to grow and serve food from our garden.
Waste Reduction and Diversion
We recycle cardboard, glass, aluminum, paper, and plastic on campus.
Our priority is to reduce food waste. We compost unavoidable food waste, which reduces greenhouse gas emissions and can also be used to amend the soil, thereby increasing drought tolerance, improving soil structure and health, and reducing the need for water and fertilizers.
Throughout the school year, we conduct a Weigh the Waste event to raise awareness about food waste and its impact on our environment and communities.
Xpress Nap Dispensers save energy and waste. The napkins are made of 100% recycled paper, and the dispenser will encourage customers to take (and waste) fewer napkins. Energy is saved because less power is used to recycle paper products than to create them from virgin material.
Individual packets of condiments are helpful sometimes but result in extra waste. If you are dining on-site or can add the sauce to your item before you leave, please use the bulk dispensers to reduce our waste.
French fries to fuel. Indeed, our fryer oil is recycled into biodiesel that is used to power various vehicles - from delivery fleets to farm equipment.
Choose to Reuse is a reusable container program to reduce waste and help achieve Sodexo's Better Tomorrow commitments by replacing single-use disposable food and beverage containers with reusable containers.
ENERGY Reduction
Where feasible, we have replaced our incandescent bulbs with LED bulbs to reduce our energy consumption.
