Why Hamdi Ulakaya of Chobani Hires Refugees: Video with Hamdi Ulakaya (Chobani)

65 million people. That’s the staggering size of the current global refugee crisis this #WorldRefugeeDay. Hamdi Ulakaya, Founder and CEO of Chobani, believes that the private sector needs to step up and do its part. Ulakaya has emerged as an outspoken thought leader on the issue and now has a staff that is nearly one-third refugees. “I think business has a huge responsibility to play,” he says. “There’s so many places that we can help. I truly believe that you have to start with the community where you are.”
