Sodexo is proud to announce its recognition as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies for the second consecutive year.
Issued by Ethisphere, a global leader in defining and advancing the standards of ethical business, this annual recognition honors Sodexo’s continuous commitment to business integrity through best-in-class policies and practices.
In 2025, a total of 136 honorees were recognized spanning 19 countries and 44 industries. Sodexo is the only honoree in the Food service industry.
The evaluation criteria to be distinguished as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies encompass five categories:
- Ethics Program
- Culture of Ethics
- Environmental & Social Impact
- Governance
- Third Party Management
This consecutive-year distinction highlights how the Group’s strong ethical principles, deeply rooted in its core values, translates into solid ethical behaviors across its operations.
Sophie Bellon, Chairwoman of the Board of Directors and CEO of Sodexo, said: “We are truly honored by this second recognition of Sodexo as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies by Ethisphere.
“Our strong company values and unwavering commitment to promoting ethical principles and responsible business conduct are key differentiators for our clients and a unique feature of Sodexo since its creation. They form the basis of the trust we build with all our stakeholders and are essential to our ambition to become the leader in sustainable food and valued experiences.”
“Congratulations to Sodexo for achieving recognition as one of the World’s Most Ethical Companies. Behind this honor is a true dedication and a commitment to advancing business integrity. This approach is good for business – employees and other stakeholders value companies that prioritize the kinds of practices we measure with our process” said Erica Salmon Byrne, Ethisphere’s Chief Strategy Officer and Executive Chair.
The listed 2025 World’s Most Ethical Companies Honorees outperformed a comparable index of global companies by 7.8 percentage points from January 2020 to January 2025.
The World’s Most Ethical Companies assessment is grounded in Ethisphere’s proprietary Ethics Quotient, which requires companies to provide 240+ different proof points on practices that support robust ethics program ; governance; a culture of ethics; environmental and social impact; and initiatives that support a strong value chain.
That data undergoes further qualitative analysis by our panel of experts who spend thousands of hours vetting and evaluating each year’s group of applicants. This process serves as an operating framework to capture and codify best-in-class ethics and practices from organizations across industries and from around the world.
