We’re committed to making a positive impact on our world. We do this by considering our impact – on health, on nature and on people – in how we run our business, make our products and act in our communities.
"Corporate responsibility does not end at the factory gate or at the office door. It influences the quality of life for everyone."
These words were spoken by Danone’s first CEO, Antoine Riboud, during a groundbreaking speech in 1972 at the Marseille Economic Forum.
Danone’s Dual Project of pursuing both business success and social progress has given rise to major sustainability commitments and innovations since the former CEO’s speech.
In June 2020, Danone became the first publicly listed company to adopt the Société à Mission status created by the French Pacte law in 2019, embedding ambitious objectives across health, environment, social topics, and inclusiveness in its by-laws.
Danone North America is proud to be one of the largest Public Benefit Corporations in the U.S. and one of the largest B Corps in the world.
Being B Corp means to be part of a select movement of companies verified to be meeting the highest standards of social and environmental criteria and using business as a force for good.
The Danone Impact Journey is our roadmap that helps us reach our sustainability and business goals across:
We are driving programs to reduce our carbon footprint by 2030; aiming to achieve net zero emissions globally by 2050.*
* Net-Zero refers to achieving a balance between the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere and the amount removed, with residual emissions reduced as close to zero as possible.
We are one of the largest B Corps in the world and evaluated to meet high environmental and social responsibility standards.
