“In his new consulting activities, Christian will naturally remain in close contact with Danone, in particular as advisor to the senior management on specific missions. The appointments of Jordi Constans and Felix Martin, who have already amply demonstrated their expertise in rich and varied career paths within Danone, reflect the continuity of our operations and our commitment to pursuing the accelerated development of our business,” he added.
