We don’t always hear a lot about yogurt, but today news came from Dannon that they expect to double their yogurt sales in the next five years.

Dannon director Juan Carlos Dalto explained to the business media that, in order to reach the target, his company plans on doubling the manufacture of yogurt by 2010-2011 by firstly expanding its existing factories in Minster, Ohio and West Jordan, Utah. Dannon also hopes to increase sales of its probiotic product DanActive (known as Actimel in Europe) and has recently launched a reduced-sugar version of the hugely popular Activia yoghurt.
