Chobani Proud to Reach Families in Stores all over America

NEW BERLIN, N.Y., Dec. 18, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The following statement was made today by Hamdi Ulukaya, Founder and CEO of Chobani, Inc., maker of America's No. 1-selling Greek Yogurt brand:

"The category we created is expanding rapidly as Greek Yogurt becomes the new standard.

Our founding mission is to provide better food to more people. We strongly believe that access to affordable, nutritious, delicious yogurt made with only natural ingredients is a right, not a privilege.  

We're mass and we're proud of it and consumers everywhere can find our Greek Yogurt at their local stores.

These values are what made us the number one Greek Yogurt brand in America.

Though we have very limited distribution within Whole Foods, they have been an important partner of ours over the years. As the number one Greek Yogurt brand in America using only natural ingredients, we share an affinity with Whole Foods and its shoppers. We know our fans love buying our products in their stores and we hope to continue our partnership moving forward."
