Maker of America's No. 1 selling Greek Yogurt brand, Chobani, Inc., launched in
2007 founded on the belief that people have great taste - they just need great options.
Chobani produces high-quality authentic strained Greek Yogurt products made with only
natural ingredients from its plants in New Berlin, New York and Twin Falls, Idaho.
From the beginning, Chobani set out to make products using only natural ingredients that are nutritious, delicious
and accessible to everyone. In just five years, Chobani surpassed $1 billion in annual revenue to become America's No. 1
selling Greek Yogurt. Chobani's success story - and the explosive growth of the entire
Greek Yogurt category - is a tribute to the vibrant demand for nutritious foods and
natural ingredients in this country.
Food safety and the quality of its product are key commitments for Chobani. The
company has invested significantly to build a network of internal and external experts
and to assemble one of the most advanced food safety and quality systems in the |
industry. In addition, Chobani has partnered with Cornell University to develop a
research program focused on dairy and food science.
In addition to its focus on food safety and quality, Chobani is committed to harboring a strong sense of community and to creating and sustaining lasting relationships
with its neighbors and communities. Through its foundation, Chobani donates 10 percent of all profits to grassroots organizations and charities globally.
