WE JOIN THE NYSE AS A PUBLICLY TRADED COMPANY
We made our third debut as a public company on the New York Stock Exchange, under the symbol ARMK, making us the fourth company in U.S. market history to publicly-list three times.
Our board of directors elected Eric J. Foss—an accomplished global business leader and world-class operator with a long tenure at Pepsi Beverages Company—as CEO, president and member of our board. Eric succeeded Joseph Neubauer, who served as our CEO for 29 years.
We completed the purchase of FilterFresh, an office coffee service, from Green Mountain Coffee Roasters and expanded our healthcare capabilities with the purchase of Masterplan, a clinical technology management and medical equipment maintenance company.
OUR TEAM PROVIDES FOOD TO TRAPPED CHILEAN MINERS
We grew our presence in Ireland when we acquired Veris PLC, a facilities and property management business.
OUR TEAMS PROVIDE FOOD & SERVICES TO HURRICANE KATRINA VICTIMS
We evolve from ARA Services into Aramark to reflect the change in our business relationships and our commitment to serving customers with passion.
We expanded into the former East Germany, establishing contracts in Hungary and the former Czechoslovakia, and expanding existing business in the United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium, and Japan.
JOSEPH NEUBAUER LEADS BUYOUT, SAVES COMPANY
After being elected CEO of ARA Services in 1983, Joseph Neubauer led a management buyout of the company in 1984, thus thwarting a hostile takeover and returning to the private sector.
WE ARE LISTED ON THE NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE FOR THE FIRST TIME AS ARA
We stunned the food service industry by acquiring a much larger food service company, Slater System, Inc., and moved our headquarters to Philadelphia.
WE ARE FORMED
A man named Davre Davidson began selling peanuts out of his old Dodge in Los Angeles, and it laid the foundation for what would eventually become the standard in service excellence, Aramark.
We focus on enriching and nourishing the lives of millions all over the world, providing a wide range of services—food, facilities and uniforms—to a diverse group of clients in 19 countries. We serve world champion sports teams, Fortune 500 companies, state-of-the-art healthcare providers and the world’s leading educational institutions. And every day, we dream of ways to do it better through our commitment to innovation and our passion for excellent customer service.
Armed with that knowledge, our Service Stars spring into action, combining insights and ingenuity to deliver moments that make a difference. These innovations could be game-changing campus transformations. Or a simpler, quicker way for you to access condiments at the ballpark. In any case, our innovations help create experiences that make an impact.
To us, service excellence isn’t just about providing great customer service. It also means using time-tested practices and proven processes to get it right every day, everywhere, in everything that we do. And it's also about striking the perfect balance between doing something well over and over again and being responsive enough to the changing needs of clients and customers. It’s being open to the continuing cycle of innovation. Excellent, but never satisfied. Process-driven, but never locked in place.
We understand that many times our people are literally the face of your business. That’s why all 270,000 Service Stars receive continual access to professional development and proprietary skills training.
