During this Shareholders’ Meeting, Sophie Bellon presented the Company's Purpose: 

"We create a better everyday for everyone to build a better life for all." 

Since its creation in 1966, Sodexo has had a dual mission, avant-garde for the time, and still relevant in 2021: "To improve the quality of life of our employees and all those whom we serve, and to contribute to the economic, social and environmental development of the communities, regions and countries in which we operate". Today, with this heritage and faithful to the spirit of progress that is part of its founding values, Sodexo wants to go further by defining a Company Purpose and reaffirming the value of the daily action of its teams serving 100 million consumers around the world.

Finally, Sodexo also presented its new brand tagline: Sodexo. It all starts with the everyday. The latter reflects Sodexo's belief that taking action on the concrete things of everyday life can significantly improve the lives of people, communities and the planet, while reaffirming a strong and committed point of view on the impact of what Sodexo does every day, for today and tomorrow.
