Description

According to the spokesman Jeroen Stok, Sodexho is taking over the KLM Facility Services. All of the 300 employees will switch to the French catering company Sodexho. For this reason Sodexho signed a five year contract for the amount of 450 million Euro. Sodexho wil take care of the uniforms of most of the employees.

This is not the first cooperation with KLM because Sodexho is already running the catering for KLM for 14 years.
