ABM and Levi’s® Stadium

Relationship Extended for Five Years

Home to the San Francisco 49ers, Levi’s® Stadium is a state-of-the-art venue that can seat up to 75,000 people. Since its opening in 2014, ABM has been the venue’s janitorial partner. In addition to 49ers games, Levi’s® Stadium hosts concerts and other major sporting events. Here are three major accomplishments the stadium has achieved with the support of ABM.

Major Events Go off Without a Hitch

Outside of regular season football games, Levi’s® Stadium often hosts major events that require robust janitorial support before, during, and after the event. In the lead-up to these large events, ABM keeps the venue clean as event managers, sponsors, and other stakeholders prepare the venue for the larger-than-usual crowds.

Our crews regularly receive positive feedback on their response speed, unobtrusiveness, and service quality for these kinds of events. As a result, the staff at Levi’s® Stadium has been able to rely on ABM to keep the facility in top shape for every event, no matter how big.

Sustainability Goals Achieved

When Levi’s® Stadium opened in 2014, it was the first professional football stadium to open with LEED Gold certification for new construction. To continue its sustainability leadership, it partnered with ABM to make strides in waste reduction and green cleaning.

As a result, Levi’s® Stadium was awarded with a second LEED Gold certification for operations and maintenance of an existing building. Accomplishments include:

  • Exemplary score on its green cleaning custodial effectiveness assessment
  • More than 85% of cleaning materials and supplies satisfy sustainability requirements
  • Cleaning equipment is Green Label tested by the Carpet and Rug Institute
  • Expanded waste reduction efforts – nearly 63% of waste is being diverted from the landfill

Recognition as a World-Class Venue

Because of its leadership in sustainability, innovation, and hospitality, Levi’s® Stadium was named Venue of Year for 2015 at the The Stadium Business Awards. This award is given to stand-out venues across the globe. Previous winners include Madison Square Garden,Target Field, and AT&T Park.

ABM is proud to be a part of the team at Levi’s® Stadium. We share the management staff’s commitment to leading in sustainability and providing an exceptional fan experience. We look forward to partnering with them for five more years and helping them continue to innovate.
