At Danone, we believe that performance and sustainability - environmental and social - go hand-in-hand: we know they actually feed one another. It is also very clear to us that performance without sustainability has no future, but it is equally clear that sustainability without performance has no real impact. Our B Corp certification, and the high standards it sets, help us further amplify and formalize this throughout the organization, as we keep delivering on our mission of providing help through food to as many people as possible.
We need business leaders to drive meaningful change within their organizations and advocate for impactful policies at all levels. B Corps are leading the way in demonstrating what is possible, both individually and collectively, by setting a higher standard for responsible and sustainable business practices.
The values that B Corps uphold are essential for creating a sustainable and equitable future. Our partnership has multiplied our impact, demonstrating that corporate climate action and associated values such as transparency and accountability make good business sense.
With the influence of the B Corp movement as a credible alternative to business as usual and the benefit corporation legal structure providing a framework for stakeholder governance, B Lab has the track record of credible impact necessary to lead business into the future.
We were looking for a way to formalize and push ourselves further on all the actions we were taking to better our practice in our estates: at the time B Corp Certification seemed the most complete and exhaustive commitment to our environmental and social goals.
