French food conglomerate Danone recorded higher profit margin in the last financial year, and is confident that it will continue to record strong performance in 2026. Despite the recent contamination scare relating to toxin cereulide in infant formula products, Danone said the financial impact was ‘not material’.
Danone whose brands include Evian and Badoit water and Activia yoghurt, reported 2025 sales of €27.28 billion ($31.6 billion), a 4.5% growth from a year ago. The performance reflected strong demand for medical nutrition and baby food in China which largely offset weakness in coffee creamers in a competitive US market.
