Danone Achieves CDP ‘Triple A’ Recognition for Environmental Leadership and Transparency

  • Sustainability

Danone has been recognized on the CDP ‘Triple A’ List for 2025, underscoring its leadership in corporate transparency and performance on climate change, water stewardship, and forest preservation. This achievement reflects Danone’s commitment to rigorous disclosure and verified action on environmental topics.

Nearly 20,000 companies were scored this year, with only 23 achieving a triple A score in the three environmental fields, which places Danone among the global leaders demonstrating mature environmental governance and meaningful progress towards environmental resilience.

Year after year, we deliver tangible progress on our health, environmental, and social ambitions. This is a demanding journey - one that requires the engagement of our entire value chain, working together to build resilient and sustainable food systems. As we achieved full B Corp™ certification in 2025, I am proud that Danone’s efforts have once again been recognized by CDP. These external recognitions demonstrate our enduring commitment to meet the highest standards that combine performance and sustainability and I am grateful to our teams whose dedication makes these achievements possible.

Antoine de Saint-AffriqueCEO of Danone

Congratulations to all companies on CDP’s A List. Businesses earning an ‘A’ score are proving that environmental ambition and commercial strength go hand in hand. High quality data gives leaders the confidence to make earth-positive decisions that secure long-term competitiveness, attract capital and safeguard natural systems. These organizations show what is possible when transparency becomes the foundation for action.

In 2025, Danone continued to advance its sustainability roadmap, the Danone Impact Journey, by taking further steps to reduce greenhouse gas emissions – with a particular focus on reducing methane emissions in its fresh milk sourcing – and working with farmers to strengthen the resilience of its dairy supply chain, with the launch of its Danone Milk Academy. Danone’s water stewardship efforts included the public release of its SPRING methodology, designed to optimize water resource management, and the renewal of its partnership with the Ramsar Convention to protect wetlands, which play a key role in climate change mitigation. In forest preservation, Danone strengthened its traceability capacities with two partnerships to deploy satellite monitoring and increased its efforts in supplier engagement.

2025 also marks Danone’s full global B Corp™ certification, with more than 200 legal entities now certified in over 60 countries – an additional milestone in Danone’s journey to embed health and sustainability at the heart of its business.
