Hamdi Ulukaya, CEO and founder of Chobani
During a View From The Top event on campus, Chobani founder and CEO Hamdi Ulukaya discussed how businesses can benefit from hiring and training refugees in their community. "Through business," he says. "Refugees can come into society and a community. It’s very simple, as a CEO: hire them, train them; you will benefit greatly and so will they.” In this interview with MBA student Alexandra Eitel, MBA '22, Ulukaya also shared how his ethos of being on the factory floor, everyday, helped his business thrive. "I kept the business so simple.," he says.I did not leave that factory for seven years. I was so into every detail that happened in that factory, there you would find opportunities, problems about to happen, and solutions.

I think about this View From The Top event on campus when I have Chobani.
Traditionally, yogurt from Greece made with Sheep's milk. Whole Foods had stopped selling Chobani yogurt At the beginning of the year, I reported that Whole Foods had stopped selling Chobani yogurt over a spat the grocery store had with the Greek yogurt brand’s use of milk from animals eating genetically modified feed. The spat went a little like this: Whole Foods only wanted to sell organic or non-GMO Greek yogurt. Chobani produces all of its Greek yogurt with milk from conventionally raised cows. Those cows were eating genetically engineered feed. Whole Foods seems to be under the impression that animal byproducts from an animal that has eaten GMO feed is also GMO. (Yes, under that same logic you and me and anyone that has ever eaten GMO food is now a GMO.) Whole Foods asked Chobani to source its product elsewhere so it was GMO-free. Chobani refused. When it comes to Greek yogurt, we may think that the authentic version is made of cow's milk and is strained of its own liquid to reach the perfect creamy consistency. But this isn't actually true. Real Greek yogurt, the kind made not in factories but in villages, has never been strained and probably never will be. Here, yogurt is made with full-fat Sheep's milk. This rich milk, together with a combination of time and temperatures, is going to give us a yogurt that is already thick, tart and creamy, without the need to be strained at all. We visited Antonis Nikolopoulos at his dairy in Floka, Greece, to learn how he makes yogurt from his Sheep herd.(kzread.info/dash/bejne/dKZ1wY9qZZXdmKQ.html)
