Food service giant extends contracts with Edrington and Devro

Global food service group Sodexo has secured three-year extensions to its contracts with spirits company Edrington and food manufacturer Devro.

As part of these new contracts, Sodexo is introducing its Kitchen Works Co. food offering to the businesses, providing meal options to cater to a wide range of dietary and culinary needs.

Taking inspiration from modern, quick-service restaurants with a ‘home-from-home’ feel, the Kitchen Works Co concept aims to offer employees and guests a chance to ‘refuel and recharge in a welcoming environment focused on flexibility and wellbeing’.

Sodexo has partnered with Edrington for more than 25 years, and in addition to food services it will continue to deliver cleaning and hospitality services at Edrington’s manufacturing facility and Head Office in Glasgow.

It has been a partner of Devro for more than ten years, and will continue to provide the Moodiesburn site in Glasgow with services including hospitality, cleaning, security, vending, and janitorial services.

Sodexo UK & Ireland CEO Corporate Services, Julie Ennis, said: “We have fostered strong partnerships with both Edrington and Devro over the many years we’ve worked together and are delighted of the confidence and trust they have in our services. Our goal is to continue providing them with flexible solutions that improve the quality of life of their people, using food to fuel productivity, while supporting them with their individual sustainability goals.”

Sodexo’s Corporate Services business delivers facilities management and food services to more than 800 sites across the UK & Ireland, working with some of the world’s most recognisable brands.

Its teams work across a range of different environments in the corporate sector, including headquarters, regional offices, data centres, manufacturing centres and research and development hubs, in sectors as diverse as professional services, financial services, pharmaceuticals, media and technology.
