Danone
Wilson Mello
Institutional Relations Director
" Danone Brasil has a relationship of over 40 years with the State of Minas Gerais; we have consolidated this relationship with the state and our commitment with local development. The company has grown and consolidated itself, winning the taste of Brazilians and becoming a synonym for yogurt. Showing the advances of Danone in the last 20 years, the company has made a structural change in its portfolio, since it chose to work on four business fronts: fresh dairy products, water, specialized nutrition and child nutrition. This choice was due to the fact that the products of these four areas provide good health and are aligned to the company mission: to take health through feeding the largest number of people. In line with the business commitment and aware of the social impacts, Danone became the biggest driver of local development in Minas Gerais, with permanent investments in factories and all the production chain.
