“We serve more than 40,000 guests in Romania every day. We operate in big cities (Bucharest, Ploiesti, Cluj-Napoca, Sibiu, Timisoara, Arad, Craiova, Galati) and in smaller cities such as Lehliu, Targoviste, Zalau, Arad, Floresti, Calarasi and Dej,” the officials of the company say.

Eurest provides several types of services, from catering and vending to cleaning. The catering business generates most of its revenue but the company has also been focusing on the cleaning business in the past few years.

In the big cities the company may open cafeterias on the ground floor of office buildings, while in secondary cities it may choose to work with companies directly for dedicated cafeterias.

Eurest is the local subsidiary of UK’s Compass group, established in 1941. Compass is listed on the London Stock Exchange, has annual revenue of GBP17 billion and more than 550,000 employees in 50 countries.(EUR1=RON4.7625)
