by Aramark
PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 1, 2018--
Aramark (NYSE: ARMK), a global leader in food, facilities and uniforms,
recently expanded its portfolio of premier hotels and conference centers
with the addition of the U.S. Postal Service’s National Center for
Employee Development (NCED). With the busiest time of year for mail
service approaching, Aramark commenced operations on October 1, 2018.
The Norman, Oklahoma facility is the second U.S. Postal Service-owned

include the National Center for Employee Development,” said Bruce W.
Fears, President of Aramark’s Leisure division. “We look forward to
welcoming postal service employees and working with the local community,
while continuing to provide outstanding services and experiences to all
visitors and guests.”

biggest conference center client. Both facilities are used to train
associates—from entry-level team members to executives.
