From the Paper:

"They may not be the most glamorous enterprises in the world, but they have been highly profitable for ARAMARK Corporation. The research showed that the company's diversified holdings include a wide range facilities and services that are routinely used by millions of consumers around the world, and the ARAMARK name has become associated with high quality and customer service. This achievement did not take place overnight, nor have all the kinks been worked out, but the literature was consistent in showing that ARAMARK's commitment to customer service and innovations have paid big dividends over the years. If it can continue its successful path to reorganization and withstand the potential impact of the adversities described above, this company will likely continue to grow well into the 21st century."
