 * Keep The scale of the company is notable, as is the number and type of war-zone and emerging-market locations where it operates. In business 13+ years, 13000 employees, $60 million in sales, how can it not be notable? Not much English-language coverage, but covered in languages of countries where it operates, in trade directories, and also in the top French newspaper even though not France-based (http://www.lefigaro.fr/lefigaromagazine/2010/02/13/01006-20100213ARTFIG00085--joachim-p-oy-lo-39-ans-president-et-fondateur-d-aden-services-.php) and in two highly reputable business magazines (http://www.usinenouvelle.com/article/joachim-poylo-sert-ses-repas-au-bout-du-monde.N63314 and http://lentreprise.lexpress.fr/implantation-a-l-etranger/ils-font-du-business-en-chine-six-exemples-de-reussite_23361.html).

 * Weak keep. 13000 employees seems big enough to be notable. But current article does not establish notability (eg a news story because they did X, or they are the Yth biggest food services company in the world) 1292simon (talk) 01:59, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Comment - Most of the sources are from French newspapers since the company's founder is a French entrepreneur and they are mainly reporting the success story of the founder rather than the significance of the company, so much that I'm convinced that he alone meets the WP:GNG criteria but I'm still not sure about the company itself.
