Danone has officially achieved B Corp™ certification worldwide, becoming a global leader in B Corp™ certification at scale. With more than 200 legal Danone entities now certified in over 60 countries, Danone employees represent around 9% of the global B Corp™ movement workforce.

 Danone has progressively certified its eligible subsidiaries – beginning in Spain and expanding across multiple and very diverse geographies, including France, the United States, Egypt, Japan, South Africa, and many others. This bottom-up approach to global certification concluded this month with the certification of Danone SA, the parent company, thereby completing the group’s global certification.

The certification process has involved a rigorous, independent evaluation of Danone’s impact across key areas of the business—from governance and workforce to community and environment.

Throughout this journey, B Corp™ has become one of the catalysts for transformation at Danone, helping to align sustainability practices across markets, strengthen employee engagement around a shared purpose, and extend impact throughout the supply chain.

Becoming a leading B Corp™ is evidence of Danone’s enduring commitment to combine performance and responsibility – which is in our DNA. This milestone demonstrates our renewed efforts to place financial and social sustainability at the heart of our business – building resilience, driving innovation and delivering long-term value for all stakeholders. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the transformative work of Danone teams all across the world, who relentlessly deliver against our ambitious goals and targets, and continue to raise the bar.

Antoine de Saint-Affrique _{CEO of Danone}
