Vinmec International Hospital has entered partnership with France’s Sodexo to provide food and nutrition services for patients.

Sodexo will provide Vinmec with Healthcare Food & Nutrition services that meet the Joint Commission International (JCI) and world-class HSE standards. These services include in-patient dining, VIP and presidential patient dining, staff dining, tube feeding service to service patients that cannot be fed by mouth and out-patient snacks service.

“Partnering with Sodexo – a world leader in food services, is an important progress in asserting the service quality at Vinmec, starting from caring about and standardising nutrition need of each single patient,” said Prof. Dr. Nguyen Thanh Liem, CEO of Vinmec International Hospital.

Vinmec is located in Hanoi and was developed by Hanoi South Urban Development JSC (an affiliate of Vincom JSC – member of conglomerate Vingroup). Over the next five years Vinmec plans to have 10 hospitals nationwide with one each in Phu Quoc, Ho Chi Minh City and Nha Trang slated to start operations in 2015. Vinmec has also developed a medical university that has announced it will start admitting students in 2016.

Founded in 1966, Sodexo now operates in 80 countries, has 428,000 employees throughout the world and serves 75 million consumers each day. It earned €18.4 billion in consolidated revenue in its fiscal year 2013 and is valued at €12.4 billion as of July 8, 2014.
