The deployment of tools and resources will augment existing programs in 26 countries. It will begin to embed new standard operating procedures that include all the necessary elements for a successful SME program.
- Step 3: Finally in the third year, the new SME program will roll out to 14 additional countries where Sodexo operates.

NAU EAT program is proof that SODEXO deployed it's first eatery with ABVG (Village Tea Company) - can we say SODEXO has completed step #2 with ABVG???

A big company like SODEXO spent 2 years or more with a small OTC company (ABVG / Village Tea company), and entrusted ABVG leadership to lead the EAT program at NAU with all Village Tea Products, Undone Chocolate products and JAWEA ice cream products. A lot of due diligence might have gone into this partnership with ABVG
SODEXO operates in more than 1000 colleges and universities in US. It's just a matter of time before SODEXO announces the news of expanding this partnership with ABVG (Village Tea Company) to other campuses in US & beyond. ABVG $$$$
