See How Sodexo Employees at Sea Experience the Junina Celebrations with Typical Food and Warmth, Even Though They Are Away from Dry Land

Tradition That Strengthens Bonds at Sea

Since 2022, Sodexo On-Site Brazil, specialized in food and facilities services, has transformed offshore platforms and ships into true party grounds during the month of June. Thus, even kilometers from the coast, the Junina parties come to life at sea.

For many employees who spend 15 to 30 days on board, away from their homes and families, these moments bring warmth and well-being. The care in every detail is noticed and highly valued, according to the participants themselves.

Party Requires Planning and Dedication

Throwing a Junina party on an offshore vessel requires more than just good ideas. Therefore, a rigorous logistical planning is essential.

Testimonials Reinforce the Emotional Impact

Renan Lemos, chef-instructor at Sodexo and a reference in offshore operations, with over 16 years of experience, shares:
“The Junina Party is highly anticipated offshore. For many, it represents a rare moment of connection with the culture on dry land,” he highlights.

He further emphasizes: “Even in the middle of the ocean, we manage to bring this sense of belonging and joy to the crew”.

Menus Adapted to Cultural Diversity

Another essential detail is the menu, which varies according to the profile of the crew on each unit. Thus:

If there are many Bahian employees on board, dishes like mungunzá, canjiquinha, and cuscuz predominate.
When the crew is primarily from the South, recipes like cuca and cakes of Italian and German origin appear.
And for the Americans on board, barbecues and hot dogs with special sauces are prepared.

Thus, food planning begins weeks in advance, with prior shipping of dry and frozen supplies. This process ensures that everything is available at the time of the party.

Tradition That Strengthens Well-Being

Finally, it is important to highlight that these initiatives demonstrate Sodexo’s attention not only to food but also to the emotional and cultural well-being of workers on platforms.

In fact, the Junina Party offshore reflects Sodexo’s ongoing commitment to quality and humanized care in all operations.
Thus, tradition and well-being sail together, strengthening bonds between teams and promoting positive experiences in challenging environments.

Russian researchers found in a volcanic crater in Kamchatka a new mineral with a crystalline structure that had never been observed in a laboratory, and petrovite has a molecular architecture that battery scientists want to replicate synthetically to create more efficient electrodes.

Spain sent its most advanced frigate to Cyprus and set up an anti-missile shield in the Mediterranean with an eye on Iran.

Volkswagen SP2 seemed too weak to be sporty, but its national design has spanned 50 years, seduced foreign collectors, and transformed a 75 hp coupe into a rare piece, while fans fear that foreigners will take away one of Brazil’s most beautiful cars.

Federal government backtracked after protests in SC: suspended mullet fishing but released an additional 400 tons, reigniting the hope of fishermen who saw schools pass by without being able to work again while waiting to return to the sea safely.
