DANONE

Danone is one of the most dynamic companies in the agri-food industry. Its mission is to bring health through food to the largest number. Danone has more than 100 000 employees on 5 continents in the world, and is a leader in 4 areas : dairy products, water, early life nutrition and medical nutrition.

Danone employees conceive models that create economic, social and environmental value. This is what makes Danone unique, with a “something special inside”. This pledge for a different type of company has enabled the firm to develop a true identity that appears in the style of management. The management at Danone is concerned with both economic and ethical values.

Danone is engaging in a partnership with Stagiaires Sans Frontières as part of its double economic and social project.

Danone Professional
