China's Bright Dairy Sales Up, Weathers Danone Exit Shanghai-based Bright Dairy & Food Co. said its sales jumped 30 percent in January from a year earlier as it focuses on high-end products such as yoghurt and expands beyond its home base. Bright Dairy, which posted three consecutive years of slowing growth, also plans to reduce its reliance on urban supermarkets by expanding into smaller cities and rural areas, according to a statement citing President Guo Bingheng.(Reuters UK, 02/27/2008)

Danone Sells Out Of Bright Dairy Being only a strategic shareholder, lacking management control, may not be a wise course if you want to prosper in the Chinese market, as France’s Groupe Danone has learned to its detriment.
