About Danonino
Danonino is a fromage frais for young children sold under a different name in almost every market, including Petit Gervais in France and Fruchtzwerge in Germany. Its dinosaur mascot is among the most recognised children's food characters in Europe. Selling the same product under many local names is unusual at this scale and reflects a series of separate national acquisitions.
