About The Company
Chobani is a next-generation food and beverage company on a mission to make nutritious food accessible to all. Since 2005, we have made food from natural ingredients, that tastes delicious and nourishes people. We’re proud to be America’s No. 1 yogurt brand – making yogurt without compromise – with all natural ingredients and no preservatives. Over the last 19 years we’ve continued to disrupt the dairy industry, adding oatmilk and creamers to our portfolio alongside yogurt. In 2023, La Colombe – a leading coffee roaster with a shared commitment to quality, craftsmanship and impact – became part of the Chobani family, adding coffee to our lineup and new opportunities to innovate. From the beginning, we set out to be a different kind of company, believing how we make our product is just as important as what goes into it. As a business, we put our people first, providing competitive wages, benefits that enable health and wellness, opportunities for growth and development, a commitment to keeping our people safe and fostering an inclusive culture where everyone feels like they belong. People are truly our magic ingredient. We also believe businesses can do well by doing good and are committed to giving back to the communities we call home. As a food company, we believe everyone should have access to good, nutritious food and are dedicated to fighting hunger and food insecurity. From volunteer initiatives to building infrastructure, and supporting organizations through our Community Impact Fund, we know that what matters most is the difference we make for others.
