Danone lifts stake in Mengniu amid dairy deals

Danone doubles its stake in China Mengniu Dairy, as multinational companies are forced to partner local companies or exit amid consolidation.

Danone, the French yoghurt maker, has doubled its stake in China Mengniu Dairy from 4% to 9.9% for HK$5.1 billion ($657 million), in a rare example of a foreign company raising its stake in a Chinese state-backed company.
