Danone DACH (Germany, Austria, Switzerland) aims to inspire healthier and more sustainable eating habits and is committed to operating in a sustainable and responsible manner. At the heart of this endeavor is Danone’s signature 'ONE PLANET. ONE HEALTH', recognizing the interconnection of the health of the people and the planet. Danone Dairy is producing brands like Activia and Dany in their plant in Ochsenfurt, Germany and sources milk mainly from regional dairy farmers to keep the delivery routes as short as possible and to support regional agriculture. In line with its mission to deliberately promote eating habits and nutritional change that are good for people's health, Danone Dairy DACH was the first company to commit to putting Nutri-Score on all of its products in 2019. Another important pillar of Danone Dairy's mission is its dedication to fighting food waste. The company committed to reducing food waste by 50 percent along the entire value chain by 2025 compared to 2016 and is educating consumers on the meaning of the Best-Before-Date, for example by cooperating with the initiative ‘Too Good To Go’. Danone Dairy started its own clearance sale shop and was even given the anti-food waste award by the German Federal Government.
