Neubauer Award and Davidson CupAramark’s two most distinguished honors recognize the contributions of two exemplary leaders who built this company. Davre Davidson was our Founding Chairman, who with his wife Charlotte started the company over 85 years ago. And Joe Neubauer – a friend, colleague, and protégé of Davre's – served as Aramark's Chairman and CEO for decades.
The Neubauer Award is presented to an individual who embodies Joe’s passion for service, leads by example, encourages prudent risk taking and embraces innovation to help Aramark grow and remain competitive in an ever-changing business world. The recipient makes an enduring impact on others, ensuring that through his or her actions, we deliver on our promises. In addition, the winner is a mentor who leads by example and inspires others to do the same.

He’s known as a family man, a company man, a friend and a colleague, a mentor and advisor to many.
