↓ -5%UK to reduce meal plan costs by 5%. May 25, 2026 Students enter the 90 on Thursday, Feb. 19, 2026, in Lexington, Ky. Photo by Scout Tarquinio | Kentucky Kernel The University of Kentucky is reducing meal plan costs for students by 5% during the 2026 Fall semester, according to a press release from UKNOW. Reduced costs were made possible through the Enterprise Services Partnership, the press release said, an initiative to locate a partner company that will provide services spanning maintenance, grounds, custodial services, dining and food services and in-patient transport services. In May, UK announced it selected food services company Compass Group as its preferred partner for the Enterprise Services Partnership, with a goal to have a contract with the company by July 2026, according to former Kentucky Kernel reporting. Compass Group is scheduled to begin dining and concessions operations on July 1. The press release said while the overall agreement is still being finalized, there have been "targeted investments" to improve the student dining experience. "These plans focus on modernizing dining locations, expanding chef-inspired menu options and introducing new service models that better reflect how students live and eat today," the press release said. "Initiatives are expected to enhance food quality, increase variety and create more welcoming dining experiences across campus." UK and Compass Group will also be working to offer "hands-on opportunities" for students to gain experience in food and hospitality services. The press release said the Enterprise Services Fellowship will cause no changes in employment, pay or benefits for UK employees and employees will have access to career development and training as the partnership moves forward. According to former Kernel reporting, it was announced through a letter that facilities provider Aramark Campus LLC would be ending its partnership with UK, resulting in 926 employees working in food and concessions to be laid off by June 30.A press release about the new partnership with Compass Group said employees "affected by the transition" would be offered an opportunity to continue working at UK with "comparable compensation and benefits."
Aramark Collegiate Hospitality announces new partnership with Suffolk University to strengthen student experience. Apr 10 2026 13:00 BST BOSTON-(BUSINESS WIRE)-Apr. 10, 2026- Aramark Collegiate Hospitality today announced a new partnership with Suffolk University slated to begin in Summer 2026. This collaboration introduces Suffolk Dining, a new dining program designed to elevate food quality, expand access, and strengthen Suffolk's competitive position in the heart of downtown Boston. Aramark Collegiate Hospitality today announced a new partnership with Suffolk University slated to begin in Summer 2026. This collaboration introduces Suffolk Dining, a new dining program designed to elevate food quality, expand access, and strengthen Suffolk's competitive position in the heart of downtown Boston. "Suffolk Dining reflects a shift toward a more welcoming, inclusive, and value-driven campus experience - one that supports our students' daily lives, strengthens community, and aligns with the way students actually live and learn in an urban campus," said Brian McDermott, Associate Vice President for Campus Experience, Suffolk University. The new Suffolk Dining meal plan increases the number of meals per week offered in the default residential plan, and students will no longer manage declining balances - instead, they'll benefit from predictable meal access, with the flexibility to choose All-You-Care-To-Enjoy (AYCTE) dining, meal exchange for grab-and-go options, or Dining Dollars for retail convenience. "Suffolk University's commitment to reimagining dining as a driver of belonging, access, and student success mirrors our own hospitality-first approach, and we are excited to be part of their story," said Barbara Flanagan, President and CEO of Aramark Collegiate Hospitality. "Together, we're building a modern program that reflects the energy of downtown Boston, supports student well-being, and delivers long-term value for the University community." Key Highlights of the Partnership * Dining as a Differentiator: A refreshed hospitality brand, visible upgrades, and expanded culinary identity will position Suffolk as a leader in student life and enrollment. Suffolk Dining emphasizes community-building spaces, modern service models, and a hospitality-first approach that extends beyond food. * Expanded Access & Inclusion: The new model introduces predictable, consistent access to meals - including All-You-Care-To-Enjoy dining and meal exchange at key retail locations - reducing the stress of budgeting and supporting students who previously ran out of dining funds mid-semester. Culturally inclusive menus and commuter-friendly options ensure that a diverse student body feels seen, welcomed, and supported. * Culinary Innovation: Menus inspired by global flavors, rotating concepts, and local sourcing will bring variety and excitement to campus. The program incorporates monotony breakers, themed events, and wellness-driven offerings designed to make dining a vibrant part of student life. * Technology Integration: Mobile ordering, self-service kiosks, improved throughput, and future smart-locker pickup solutions will deliver greater convenience and speed across Suffolk's campus. The move to Grubhub replaces Boost and provides a familiar, intuitive interface for students and employees. The partnership aligns with Suffolk's strategic priorities and reflects Aramark's commitment to innovation and long-term financial sustainability. Through a multiyear plan, Aramark will invest in and deliver a dining experience designed to enhance the student experience, support well-being, and foster a strong sense of community across Suffolk's residential and commuter populations.

Contact us. News | Healthcare+ How Aramark Healthcare+ develops Patient Menus that deliver nutrition, innovation, and dignity. March 30, 2026 In hospitals across the country, a patient's meal is often the one part of the day they can control. As expectations for food and choice continue to rise, that moment of autonomy has taken on new weight. Aramark Healthcare+ treats it not as a routine service, but as a point of care - one that requires menus built with the same rigor as any clinical standard. Behind every menu is an extensive development process that blends clinical nutrition requirements, culinary creativity, regional preferences, and real-time feedback from the field. The goal is direct but demanding: provide meals that are safe, compliant with therapeutic diets, and appealing to support healing. Patients Expect the Experience to Match their Lives Outside the Hospital According to Aramark Healthcare+ insights, today's patients increasingly expect restaurant-quality meals, broader dietary options, and clear nutritional transparency - reflecting shifts in consumer culture and the influence of tech-enabled personalization on everyday dining. Hospitals, under pressure to improve patient-experience scores, are responding by modernizing menus and service models to meet those rising expectations. * Technology enables the patient dining experience. * A broader foodie culture, driving interest in healthier, sustainable, and globally influenced meals alongside comfort classics. * Increased attention to patient satisfaction, pushing hospitals to upgrade menu quality as part of overall care. Aramark leverages technology and real-time data tools to elevate the patient dining experience through faster service, personalized meal options, and seamless communication across the care team. Dietitians Drive Continuous Evolution of Patient Menus at Aramark Healthcare+ Dietitians sit at the center of Aramark Healthcare+'s menu development team. They lead the first formal review of any new recipe, analyzing sodium, fat, and other nutrient thresholds to ensure compliance with clinical standards. Together, dietitians and chefs collaborate on recipe development to ensure recipes align with therapeutic diets while maintaining flavor, quality, and feasibility in hospital kitchens. As patient expectations evolve, so does the pace of menu change. Quarterly menu refreshes allow dietitians and chefs to introduce new recipes, reformulate existing menus, and incorporate trend-driven additions. Requests for new recipes are driven by account operators that include plant-forward, culturally specific, and culturally diverse food items tailored to drive satisfaction for their specific populations. A Flexible System Designed for Accuracy and Choice Aramark Healthcare+ maintains multiple adult and pediatric menu programs - ranging from restaurant formats to multi-week cycle menus - and dietitians build the house menus that support regulatory compliance. Hospitals can further supplement them with more than 2,000 vetted recipes, allowing flexibility for regional preferences or cultural needs while preserving accuracy in nutritional analysis. Dietitians are an integral part of the patient dining experience. When a patient requires modified textures or customized components, local clinical teams collaborate with the medical team and chefs to ensure safety standards are met. This ensures meals meet both dietary requirements and personal preferences - an increasingly important factor as expectations for hospital dining continue to rise. A Commitment to Dignity through Food As menu trends accelerate and expectations rise, Aramark Healthcare+ remains central to shaping what patients are offered. Their work ensures meals remain clinically sound, operationally practical, and aligned with the food preferences patients recognize outside hospital walls. That approach puts a spotlight on a core belief in the company: a patient's meal is more than a tray - it is a moment of dignity, choice, and connection in the middle of care.
