Elior North America Revamps Education Dining Services for Students

Elior North America's Education Dining Revolution

Elior North America, a top player in the foodservice industry, has made a significant move by rebranding its educational dining services. The new initiative aims to streamline and enhance the dining experience for students across various educational institutions, from K-12 to colleges. This rebranding involves a thoughtful consolidation of their divisions: Aladdin Campus Dining, Lexington Independents, Cater to You, and K-12 by Elior. The update is not just cosmetic; it reflects a deeper commitment to ensuring students receive quality meals that support their learning and wellbeing.

For over 50 years, Elior North America has been delivering innovative, student-focused dining solutions, serving over 73 million meals annually to more than 300 educational campuses. The new structure of Elior North America’s educational dining divisions is designed to cater to the diverse needs of students:

1. Elior Collegiate Dining

Formerly known as Aladdin Campus Dining, the new Elior Collegiate Dining seeks to revolutionize foodservice on college campuses. Their mission is not only to deliver vibrant food offerings but also to create inclusive environments where students can thrive. This new division aims to bolster community engagement and enhance students’ collegiate experiences beyond just dining.

2. Elior Independent School Dining

The merger of Lexington Independents and Cater to You has given birth to the Elior Independent School Dining division. This new name represents their joint legacy and commitment to engaging students through diverse cuisines and healthy eating. The aim is to foster a vibrant food culture that nurtures curiosity and supports wellness among young learners.

3. Elior School Dining

Previously known as K-12 by Elior, Elior School Dining targets public and charter schools, emphasizing the importance of transforming school meals into exciting culinary experiences. This division’s goal is to fuel learning while promoting healthy choices and sparking interest in food among students.

The comprehensive rebranding comes with promises of enhanced visual identities, modern marketing strategies, and innovative menu options across all divisions. Elior North America’s commitment to nutrition and sustainability remains strong, with an emphasis on personalized service tailored to the unique needs of each school and campus.

Travis Young, Senior President of Elior's Education Department, expressed his enthusiasm about the brand’s transformation, stating, "This change not only brings unity and clarity to our operations but also reflects a renewed dedication to our students and the critical role that food plays in their educational journey."

In conclusion, Elior North America is poised to create impactful dining experiences that align with contemporary student needs, thereby making a significant contribution to their educational success and community spirit. With this rebranding initiative, Elior is not merely changing its name; it is reaffirming its dedication to providing student-centered dining solutions that resonate with today’s young consumers.
