62 jobs lost after Hillsborough Community College pulls contract

Sodexo, a French food company that counts facilities maintenance as one of its services, has lost its contract with Hillsborough Community College and will lay off 62 employees.

In a letter sent to state and local officials, the company says it was informed June 13 that the local college had decided to use another contractor and that its contract expired July 31.

Sodexo says because of that it will close its operations at the college and its workers “will be discontinued.”
