Results count, but how we get those results also matters.

We work with CODES guides (Creates, Opens, Drives, Empowers, Self-Aware) that describe how we work on a daily basis and represent how we behave, progress in our business, make contacts, buy and sell products, and recruit staff.

Values

Our distinctive culture at Danone Research & Innovation is made up of our four core values: Humanism. Openness. Proximity. Enthusiasm (HOPE). These values are ethical principles, ideals we strive to achieve. It may not always be easy to live and work within the constraints they entail and the contradictions that may result in the operation of the business, but these values are what we must remain faithful to.

Our values are ethical principles, ideals we strive to achieve.

Our four core values are embodied in principles of behaviour that enable us to give them concrete shape in what we do.
