The renewed contract covers five remote villages, including the new Higginsville village, which Westgold commissioned north of Norseman in December last year. Under the contract, Sodexo will provide village management, accommodation services for approximately 1,500 rooms, catering and food services, industrial mine site cleaning, and recreational facilities to support Westgold's growing workforce. The agreement is expected to create over 100 jobs within Sodexo and generate additional employment and procurement opportunities in the Goldfields region.

The contract signing comes as Westgold continues to expand its accommodation infrastructure. Recent projects include the addition of 40 rooms at the Big Bell village, 40 rooms at the Bluebird village, and 24 rooms at Fortnum. Sodexo will also collaborate with Westgold on further expansion and renovation works across the villages, including additional accommodation, facility upgrades, and the advancement of wastewater treatment projects at the Bluebird and Fortnum sites.
