The team uses a life-cycle perspective to optimize each product’s footprint while maintaining service quality.
To reinforce this model, leaders map responsibilities, keep data accuracy, and create clear reporting lines that connect mission to daily actions. The ladder enables career growth for specialists and leaders, ensuring the team remains aligned with values while delivering measurable business results.
Mission in Action: Translating Purpose into Daily Decisions
Log three daily decisions that move toward zero-emissions, assign a site owner, and report results weekly.
In January, we piloted this approach at seven sites across America, with investments directed toward alternative materials and process improvements. We measure emissions and cost impact in a single context to ensure clarity for every employee.
- Decision capture and flagging: Each shift, an employee points to the top action and flags it on the open dashboard. The flag signals priority, and a one-line letter to the team explains the action and expected emissions impact.
- Materials and procurement: Compare two options for each component, prioritize alternative materials with lower embodied emissions, and publish related data to suppliers whenever possible to enable open collaboration.
- Operations and energy: Optimize routes, reduce idle time, and accelerate generation of on-site clean energy. Adapt equipment use to cut energy and emissions while preserving economic viability.
Over time, we originate decisions from our vision, guiding choices toward tangible results. The force of daily decisions builds resilience across all sites in America, and the learning loop remains open to feedback from every employee. We will publish a monthly letter that highlights progress, challenges, and next steps, ensuring transparency and accountability for all stakeholders engaged in this mission. As pointed out by field teams, the most effective actions cut emissions and deliver measurable cost savings.
Quality in Practice: Standards for Taste, Safety, and Consistency
Implement a time-bound sensory and safety verification protocol across the supply chain with a shared standard, clearly defined scope, and mechanisms for rapid adjustment.
Align with policy signals and stakeholder expectations to secure political and market support, ensuring the focus remains on major risk areas and progress on decarbonization through measured efficiencies.
Structure and shared responsibility ensure continuity of data and accountability. Always include farmers and plant varieties in the decision loops, providing the support they need to maintain quality as developments occur and to replace outdated practices with evidence-based controls.
Taste discipline relies on a standard sensory protocol, an engaging panel process, and a weight on consumer relevance. Build a robust descriptor set, calibrate instruments, and include seasonal adjustments to preserve a consistent profile across products and time.
Safety discipline requires a formal HACCP-style plan, risk assessment at each node, and time-bound verification of critical controls. Use a clear risk map, with mechanisms to document deviations and corrective actions, and replace any process that cannot meet safety thresholds.
Continuity of data and structural governance keep audits and trends visible. Create a shared data structure that stores batch-level results, with access for farmers, processors, and retailers, and establish routine reviews to keep actions aligned with the standard.
Area | Standard | Current Practice | Action / Recommendation | Responsible | Metriche | Timeline |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Taste | Standardized sensory profile with a trained panel; descriptor lexicon; target acceptability score ≥ 8/10 | Ad hoc tastings; inconsistent descriptors | Launch full panel program; calibrate tools; align with plant varieties | QA Lead / R&D | Panel repeatability; inter-panel agreement; acceptability score | Q1–Q4 |
Sicurezza | HACCP-based controls; defined critical limits; daily verification | Bare sanitation checks; sporadic supplier audits | Formal HACCP plan; supplier verification; pathogen control plan | Safety Officer / Plant Manager | CCP compliance rate; nonconformance incidents | Q1–Ongoing |
Coerenza | Documented SOPs; calibrated equipment; process capability monitoring | Manual methods; irregular calibration | Fully documented SOPs; quarterly calibration; capability tracking | Operations Lead | CAPA closure; equipment uptime; rework rate | Q1–Q3 |
Sustainability / Decarbonization | Baseline established; energy and water metrics; low-carbon packaging | Fragmented efforts; no baseline | Energy audits; migrate to low-carbon packaging; track scope 1/2 | Operations / Sustainability Lead | Energy intensity; emissions per unit; packaging waste | Year 1 baseline; 3-year target |
Structure & Scope | Shared governance; cross-stakeholder advisory group; time-bound milestones | Internal silos; limited supplier involvement | Define scope with farmers, processors, retailers; quarterly reviews | Executive Sponsor / Stakeholder Committee | Milestones completed; risk log updates | Ongoing |
With these elements in place, the network of farmers, plant producers, and market partners gains a clear, trust-based framework for taste, safety, and consistency that supports weight on consumer outcomes, reduces risk, and accelerates improvements.
Social and Environmental Responsibility: Real Projects Across the Supply Chain
Focus on a defined, scalable program that uses measurable targets to reduce social and environmental impacts across the supply chain and deliver clear value to communities and customers.
Leading suppliers align with danone standards, and current projects cover energy, materials, and social footprints through a ladder of milestones and annual reviews, pursued responsibly.
In manufacturing, electrical energy efficiency drives savings; we install energy monitors, set temperature controls, and adapt to local weather patterns to cut waste and ensure materials used meet defined sustainability specs. On average, energy intensity per unit output declines over time.
april updates show progress versus baseline, with measurable reductions in energy use and packaging waste, while data covers both direct and value-chain impacts.
These projects build resilience across the supply chain; over time, transport optimization, reusables, and packaging redesign create opportunity for suppliers to reduce costs while improving worker safety and community benefits.
last year, pilots in upstream farming, packaging, and local distribution demonstrated that annual reporting can translate into concrete actions, with the ladder of improvements guiding teams from trial to scale.
These efforts support a focused path to reduce weather-related risks and temperature fluctuations affecting production, while keeping the current workforce engaged and involved.
Integrity and Collaboration: Building Trust with Partners and Consumers
Implement a transparent disclosure framework aligned with guidelines to build trust with partners and consumers. Establish a baseline of metrics and publish updates that show measuring impacts and progress, ensuring stakeholders see our commitment in concrete terms.
Move collaboration forward by funded programs that share related data with investors and partners. Set a clear target, explain pricing implications, and report outcomes with quarterly updates to show how efficiencies compound across the sector, aiming for outcomes that benefit all stakeholders.
Establish pricing transparency that reflects value and protects consumers, with guidelines that are easy to audit. A 6- to 12-month plan can shift pricing gradually while maintaining access, with a target to reduce variability than previously observed.
Measure the economic footprint of our operations and compare against a baseline to capture change over time. Track efficiencies, impacts, and cost drivers, and share these updates with investors and partners to drive informed decisions across the sector.
We own the data we collect and the policy allows access to related insights from our owned datasets in a controlled way. This approach ensures only authorized sharing and keeps privacy and competitive safeguards intact while enabling actionable decisions for partners and consumers.
Establish governance with a clear cadence: quarterly updates to investors, monthly measuring dashboards for teams, and periodic public reports. This structure anchors contribution to economic growth, aligns to baseline metrics, and guides continuous improvement across the sector, prioritizing transparency and collaboration.
