STORYTELLING

FoodMore good stuff; less bad stuff.

We deliver great food that happens to be healthy andincorporate more whole grains, fruits and vegetables.We realize that food is fuel; therefore we want to give our customers more good stuff and less bad stuff. We want to incorporate seasonal, local, authentic, nutrient-dense foods whenever possible to create a pathway to cleaner eating.

CommunityMore than just a café.

We create community by optimizing existing spaces and transforming them to be multifunctional spaces used throughout the day. These spaces provide our customers with meeting areas, decompression zones, social spaces and collaborative areas that create engagement andentertainment.

OwnershipEnable the customer.

We leverage technology in our business to help customerstake ownership of their health and lifestyle decisions. Through technology we are able to provide cashless and mobile payment options, desktop and smartphone ordering, interactive digital tables, personalized apps, customized food choices and a physical activity program to encourage active lifestyles.

StorytellingBehind every meal is a story.

We connect our customers to our food by telling the story of where it comes from and the people behind it. We provide a strong story by establishing partnerships with companies that align with our sustainable and environmental initiatives.

We envision the future of food service to be a holistic experience where our customers and clients find it easy to live well and thrive. We provide more than a café. It is an environment where people choose to be. It is a space that promotes community and collaboration that is powered by great tasting food that happens to be healthy.

We want our customers to be able to make responsiblefood choices, experience a connection with food, take ownership of their well-being and promote productivityand collaboration. Additionally, we want to leveragetechnology and enable customers to customize and own their food experience based on their own personal dietary requirements.

Making it easy for customers and clients to live well and thrive is the cornerstone of our vision. We have established foundational pillars that drive that vision - food, community, ownership and storytelling.

OwnershipEnabling through technology. FoodMore good stuff; less bad stuff.

We are committed to the health andwellbeing of our guests and our planet. Therefore, we have adopted principlesfocused on engineering our menus tocreate a more sustainable food supply, provide delicious, nutrient-dense meals for our guests and protect and improve the health of our planet.

Conscious Menuing and MessagingWe promote wellbeing and sustainability through inspiring choices, featuring better-for-you menus and encouraging customer interaction while serving great tasting food that happens to be healthy.

ProduceOur goal is to increase customers’ access to vegetables and fruits by focusing on globally inspired, largely plant-based cooking.

Red MeatWe are able to reduce red meat portion sizes and offerings byincluding recipes where meat plays more of a supporting role and by adding seasonal and local flavors to global cuisines.

Whole GrainsWe offer 50 to 100 percent whole grain options in our cafés.

SeasonalEating seasonally means building menus around foods that have been harvested at their peak. This is better for our customers, community and the environment.

LocalWe feature local produce in our cafés to promote awareness of the rising trend in eat local initiatives across the country. Local produce is fresher, tastes better, supports community and is better for the environment.

Fuel PerformanceFood is fuel. We focus on nutrient-dense functional foods thatimprove physical and mental performance, productivity and overall well-being.

Less Processed We believe that serving foods that are free from preservatives,additives and artificial colors are better for customers and theenvironment.

Food RecoveryKeeping food waste out of landfills is a critical part of Compass Group’s commitment to sustainable food service. One way to divert food waste from landfills is through the donation of food that is safe to eat but can no longer be served in a café; a process otherwise known as food recovery. With a number of organizations across the country, our accounts have access to facilities where they can easily donate food rather than throwing it away.

OwnershipEnabling through technology. CommunityMore than just a café.

Employees today are more mobile and dispersed, often looking for a productive place to work outside of the office, which separates them from coworkers, the office culture and organizational resources.

By offering employees a selection of on-site gathering places, they can easily find a spot to take a break from their usual workspace.

Employees can select from spaces ranging from individual to large group settings, allowing them to maintain close connections with colleagues and the organization, without ever leaving the office.

Creating Coveted DestinationsThrough our strategic partnership with Steelcase we are able to provide our customers with the WorkCafé, adynamic space that connects people with col leagues, their work, and their organization.
