Sodexo Acquires Swedish Restaurant Group

Sodexo has acquired Sweden-based corporate restaurant group K-märkt for an undisclosed sum.

Established in 2014, K-märkt currently has six restaurants in the Swedish capital of Stockholm, with a goal of further expansion throughout the country. According to a press release, K-märkt’s sustainable food model, strong supply chain network, and efforts to reduce food waste were key factors in influencing Sodexo’s acquisition.

“We are driving change by how we source and cook food, what we offer to our consumers, and how we manage waste,” said Peter Mellin, Sodexo in Sweden CEO. “At Sodexo, we develop creative and plant-forward menus and work successfully to reduce food waste. With the acquisition of K-märkt, we will continue to upgrade and upscale our existing food offers in Sweden and make sustainable food available to more people.”
