Hamdi Ulukaya
Founder
Hamdi Ulukaya founded Chobani in 2005 with the mission of making high-quality food more accessible – and today it’s the #1 selling yogurt brand in the United States. Chobani has since expanded to an innovative modern food portfolio, adding creamers and oat milk, and welcoming like-minded brands under the Chobani umbrella, including La Colombe and Daily Harvest. Hamdi is known for his purpose-driven, employee-first policies and has become a leading voice in the movement to hire refugees. In 2016, he founded the Tent Partnership for Refugees, which focuses on mobilizing the business community to connect refugees to work.
