According to the New York Times, Chobani’s founder, Hamdi Ulukaya, has taken serious heat for hiring more than 300 refugees to work in his factories and starting a foundation to help migrants. His company has been the victim of attacks, sometimes of a racist nature, on social media and some websites, including Breitbart News.
Ulukaya, who will be speaking later today at the Fast Company Innovation Festival, is a Turkish immigrant of Kurdish descent.
