Silk plant-based beverage

Silk is a leading brand in the plant-based dairy alternative market, particularly well-known for its soy, almond, and oat milk products. The brand was originally created by WhiteWave Foods in the United States in 1977, focusing on healthful, non-dairy options. In 2017, the brand underwent a significant ownership change when Danone, the French multinational food-products corporation, acquired WhiteWave Foods (then known as DanoneWave in North America).

Today, Silk is under the ultimate ownership of Danone, which is headquartered in Paris, France. In the Canadian market, the products are distributed by Danone Inc., which operates as a certified B Corp, emphasizing social and environmental performance. While the brand has global reach and historical roots in American health food innovation, individual product units, such as the one shown, are manufactured in the United States using sustainable packaging practices certified by the FSC.
