Because Silk must share its manufacturing operations with Danone North America’s other brands, including dairy brands, the brand put into place strict allergen-control practices
Although it was founded decades ago, the Silk plant-based product brand has been part of Danone North America — headquartered in White Plains, N.Y., and Broomfield, Colo. — since 2017. Silk products, therefore, are now manufactured in the 13 U.S. manufacturing facilities Danone North America owns, explains Rick Camacho, chief supply officer for Danone North America.
“Among our facilities is our Pennsylvania plant [in DuBois], which is the world’s largest plant-based yogurt alternative manufacturing facility in the world,” he points out.
