Danone North America will invest $65 million over the next two years to increase production of its ready-to-drink coffee brands, including coffee creamer International Delight, oat milk Silk, and cold brew range SToK

A subsidiary of French food and beverage giant Danone, the Colorado-based Danone North America said the investment in its Florida-based factory will enable the company to capitalize on growing consumer demand for RTD coffee and deliver cost savings, efficiencies, and quality improvements.

According to Shane Grant, Group Deputy CEO of Danone North America, the investment will allow them to capitalize on consumer demand in key beverage categories, including coffee creamers, plant-based creamers, and ready-to-drink coffee, in North America, while also supporting their long-term growth agenda.

Danone North America operates 16 production sites and employs 6,000 staff across the US and Canada.
