Performance, People and Purpose

Our strategic focus on People, Performance and Purpose continues to underpin all that we do in our ambition to deliver value to all our stakeholders.

Performance
We manage the business using our Management and Performance (MAP) framework. The discipline it brings ensures we are managing the business efficiently while continuing to delight our clients and consumers with innovative, healthy and exciting food service solutions.

People
Our people are at the heart of who we are and what we do. Compass is uniquely positioned to create lifetime opportunities and to positively impact and represent the communities in which its businesses operate, creating empowered teams by developing diverse talent and leaders who foster an inclusive culture that enables everyone to be themselves.

Purpose
Compass continually seeks ways to be more socially and environmentally responsible. Our purpose continues to drive innovation and collaboration across the Group as we strengthen partnerships with clients, business partners and local communities.

Food is our focus and our core competence. We take a pragmatic and targeted approach to support services on a country and sector specific basis

Organic revenue growth
Our business model begins with organic growth, which we drive through sectorising and sub sectorising. This approach allows us to differentiate ourselves and get close to our consumers to create bespoke and innovative solutions. Organic growth is supplemented by small and medium sized acquisitions that add capability or scale in our existing markets.

Operating efficiencies
We focus on operational execution and generate efficiencies by optimising our supply chain and diligently managing our food and labour costs. These benefits enable us to reinvest in digital and culinary innovation to maximise the significant growth opportunities for the Group.

Competitive advantage
Our growth, the scale it creates and our focus on cost and efficiencies, along with our robust balance sheet, gives us real competitive advantage. These advantages allow us to provide our clients and consumers with the best value in terms of quality and cost which, combined with our sectorised approach, helps drive long term sustainable organic revenue growth.

Our people and culture
Our  people and purpose are at the heart of our business. Our aim is to nurture an engaged and highly capable workforce to win new business, manage our units efficiently and effectively, and deliver the healthiest, most innovative food solutions in a way that provides a safe and exciting experience to our clients and consumers.
