    Following the WhiteWave acquisition, the global EDP organization focused on implementing a successful three-year integration program. In that time it established a solid operational backbone, executed a strategy that, for the first time, blended and cross-fertilized the essential dairy and plant-based elements of the category to meet the rising demand from consumers adopting flexitarian diets. In addition, innovation capabilities were upscaled, and importantly, the $300m run-rate synergies plan at the core of WhiteWave’s acquisition was delivered.

    EDP North America is Danone’s largest business and the biggest B CorpTM in the world. The transformation of the EDP business in the region provides now a strong foundation for it to move into a new chapter of growth; one that captures the realities of a fast-changing market. 

    In order to achieve this, the EDP global organization is evolving in two ways. Firstly, to elevate EDP North America at Danone Executive Committee level and strengthen the local focus of its organization, the business will be recognised as a separate business, led by a new appointee. Secondly, the company will also create a Plant-based Acceleration Unit to leverage the power of EDP’s expertise in this area to unleash further growth opportunities across Danone, notably by expanding into new geographies outside North America.

    As a result, Shane Grant will join Danone as Executive Vice President and CEO Danone North America, with effect from May 11, 2020, to lead the EDP business in that market. He will report to Chairman and CEO Emmanuel Faber and will be a member of the Executive Committee.  Before joining Danone, Shane Grant spent almost 20 years with The Coca-Cola Company, where he held various leadership roles in marketing, commercial and general management, including SVP Glacéau and President, Coca-Cola Canada before being appointed President of the Still beverages business unit for Coca-Cola North America in January 2019.
