In brief

What this company does

Aramark provides food and facilities services to education, healthcare, business and industry, and sports, leisure and corrections clients, primarily in the United States, with an additional 15-country footprint. Aramark's approximately 278,390 employees serve millions of customers, including students, patients, employees, sports fans, and guests, worldwide.

In fiscal 2025, Aramark generated $18.5 billion of revenue, $791.8 million of operating income, and $326.4 million of net income attributable to Aramark stockholders.
