**About Hamdi Ulukaya:**

***Hamdi Ulukaya was raised in a dairy-farming family in a small village in eastern Turkey.*** **After moving to the United States, he founded Chobani in 2005 with the mission and vision of making high-quality food more accessible. **Five years after selling the first cup of yogurt, **Chobani** was a billion-dollar brand, and today **is the #1 selling yogurt brand in the U.S.** The company has since expanded to an innovative modern food portfolio, adding dairy and plant-based creamers and oat milk.    

As a leader in the food manufacturing industry, **Ulukaya built Chobani on the foundation that it would do well by doing good.** 

He is well-known for his employee-first policies, including instituting innovative profit-sharing and paid parental leave programs for Chobani’s 2,000-plus employees and implementing competitive hourly wage increases well above the federal rate. 

**He has also become a leading voice in the movement to hire refugees,** having discovered through his own experience hiring them that “the minute a refugee gets a job is the minute they stop being a refugee.”    

**Ulukaya also founded Tent Partnership for Refugees** in 2016, a foundation that mobilizes the business community to connect refugees to work.
