At Danone Ireland, our commitment to bring health through food to as many people as possible is as old as the company itself

Our Impact Journey

For over a century, we’ve been faithful to our original purpose, selling healthy, delicious products tailored to the nutritional needs and eating habits of our consumers. In the 1970s, Danone began to consider the environmental and social impact of our business on the planet.

Today, 'One Planet. One Health' reflects our belief that the health of people and the health of the planet are interconnected.

It is a call to action for all consumers and everyone who has a stake in food to join the food revolution: a movement aimed at nurturing the adoption of healthier, more sustainable eating and drinking habits.

Launched in 2023, the Danone Impact Journey provides a framework to focus our efforts on achieving our mission while simultaneously having a positive impact on the nation’s health, on the lives of our employees and communities, and on the planet.

Our Impact Journey helps us prioritise the areas where we can deliver greatest impact across three core pillars: health, nature and people & communities.

Against each, we have set clear targets to enable us to track our progress and identify areas where we need to go further. Our Impact Journey priorities are embedded in the way we operate as a business – from our strategic business planning to our product innovation and supplier relationships.

Each year, we provide an update on how we are delivering against our targets and determine the areas where there is still work to be done. Our Impact Reports also showcase some great examples of how we are working within Danone – and with our partners and organisations – to deliver positive change.
