Championing sustainable resource use

Sodexo champions sustainable resource usage for its clients and relevant stakeholders in the Philippines.

Sodexo also committed to phase out other single-use plastic products, such as take-away plastic bags, wraps, and cutleries by 2020.

In recent years, environmental groups have targeted plastic straws as a starting point in addressing the growing problem of plastic pollution.
