Passion on a plate: Creating memorable food experiences

The way people choose and purchase food is changing, and providing food and beverage options to your employees doesn’t always require large retail spaces or extensive on-site staffing.

We support right-sized, cost-effective solutions that are compact and efficient. From as little as 2m² and a standard power supply, we can repurpose underused areas such as storage spaces, walkways, meeting rooms, or reception area to deliver well-designed food and beverage solutions.

Through unattended retail, including modern vending and self-service concepts, food and drink service can be made available to people wherever and whenever it is needed.

Supporting health and wellbeing is a priority for many organisations. Poor employee health is costly to businesses, and employees with higher wellbeing are shown to be 20% more productive (World Health Organisation, 2023). 

We support wellbeing through dedicated programmes, health-focused initiatives in our food and drink spaces, and country-specific schemes that promote balanced and nutritious food choices for customers.

Our experienced deployment teams manage complex food service projects, while maintaining high operational standards and seamlessly bringing ISS’ food and drink concepts to life in our customers’ spaces.

They are experienced in change management and closely with customers to ensure a smooth transition during mobilisation. By coordinating subject matter experts across disciplines, they help ensure consistency, compliance and effective delivery from day one.

Food chains account for almost a third of global carbon emissions. As a global provider of food services, we focus on responsible sourcing and reducing food waste to help lower environmental impact.

We support our customers in progressing their sustainability goals through proactive measures that deliver measurable value. This includes support for Scope 3 emissions targets, with a food sustainability strategy focused on reducing carbon emissions, minimising food waste, and promoting responsible purchasing. 

As part of this approach, ISS is a member of the World Resources Institute and offers Coolfood-certified low carbon meals, which produce 38% lower carbon emissions than the average meal. Our menus include multiple Coolfood-accredited options each week.

In the Nordics, the Nordic Swan Ecolabel reflects ISS’s commitment to sustainable food services. By meeting its strict criteria, we support responsible sourcing and operations that help customers meet their own sustainability goals.
