Aramark launches Salute Hospitality

Aramark’s workplace experience group just launched a new brand dedicated to the hospitality needs of those in the military and government communities. The Salute Hospitality experience includes a visual transformation featuring updated branding materials that celebrate the military community.

In addition, the menu features healthier options including choices from Aramark’s Eat Well initiative, which focuses on nutritionally sound meals.

Members of the military often work as part of the Salute Hospitality team at client locations, which includes 13 Air Force bases across the country, according to a statement.

All team members who work front-of-house go through Salute Hospitality’s Rise Above training, which is tailored to diners in the military and government communities.

Other ways Aramark engages with the military community include through career opportunities, external partnerships and the Aramark employee resource group called Salute. Many of Salute Hospitality’s chefs and leaders have served in the military or are military family members themselves.

“We are honored to be able to serve those who serve our country,” said Joe Damico, vice president of Salute Hospitality, in a statement. “From every military member or government employee to retired veterans and their families, we create elevated and engaging experiences through a commitment to culinary and hospitality excellence, the knowledge gained from years serving this community, and the world-class training and opportunities we provide to every team member."
