US-based foodservice company Aramark has won an on-campus dining services contract from the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech) in the US.

The institute selected Aramark through a collaborative RFP proposal process with input from students, faculty and staff. The contract will be effective starting 1 July this year.

Georgia Tech campus services associate vice-president Kasey Helton said: “We are excited to work with Aramark to improve food service opportunities for the campus community.

“The collaboration will transform the dining program while maintaining high-quality standards, reasonably priced options and a variety that support the diverse needs of the Tech community.”

As part of the contract, Aramark will establish hyper-local partnerships with area celebrity chefs and restaurateurs, and use new technology to streamline service and wait times.

The company will also introduce creative menus/varied choices with a focus on quality, health, convenience and personalisation and renovate dining facilities at the campus, as well as undertake sustainability initiatives.
