Sodexo again recognized with CDP “A” rating for climate action – reinforcing its sustainability leadership within the industry

Sodexo-recognized-by-CDP

Sodexo has once again been ranked on the prestigious CDP1 Climate A List, positioning itself among the world’s leading companies for environmental transparency and performance. Only 4% of the more than 22,000 companies assessed in 2025 received this top score, and Sodexo is the only company in its sector to achieve this distinction.

Being included on CDP’s A List highlights Sodexo’s consistent commitment to climate action, marking the second time the Group has received CDP’s highest rating. The score reflects both the ambition of Sodexo’s climate strategy, aligned with the Science-Based Targets initiative (SBTi) to achieve Net Zero by 2040, and the rigour, transparency and execution of its environmental disclosures. 

We are proud to see Sodexo included once again in the CDP A List, recognizing our teams’ efforts to embed our climate commitments into daily operations in collaboration with our clients. It reinforces our conviction that sustainability serves business performance, as well as positively impacting people and planet. Our focus remains on tangible impact and measurable progress as we support the transition to a more sustainable food system.
