Sodexo announces having completed the transfer of its activities in Russia to local management

Sodexo stops its activities in Russia, which represent less than 1% of Group revenues. Sodexo transferred ownership of its activities in the country to local management who will continue operations in Russia via an independent structure and brand.

Sodexo does not have activities in Ukraine. From the beginning of the conflict, Sodexo has been strongly mobilized to ensure business continuity for its clients, guarantee the safety of its employees, and provide support to the refugees in countries bordering Ukraine. Sodexo Group and Stop Hunger have set up a Sodexo Employee Donations Global Initiative with the support of their long-term partner, the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP). Employee donations are matched by Sodexo and used to support refugees in the region and people affected by the conflict in Ukraine.
