Danone Confident For 2012

The French food group has attributed its confidence for 2012 to strong growth in emerging markets, easing commodity prices and anticipated benefits from its acquisition of Unimilk in Russia. Chief executive Franck Riboud said: “We stand by our full-year targets for 2011. Danone is in very good shape, with operations in Asia, Latin America and Africa/Middle East continuing to post robust growth.”
