Chobani CEO Touts Twin Falls Labor Force

Ulukaya did not give a completion date for the new 900-square-foot plant, saying only it will be done before the end of 2012. It will be the second outlet for the Greek yogurt manufacturer, which now produces its product in New Berlin, N.Y.
The Twin Falls plant will have a beneficial economic ripple effect for the local area, Ulukaya predicted.
“A lot of businesses will follow Chobani’s footsteps, a lot of suppliers,” he said.
He also credited CSI for developing a key training program for newly hired Chobani management employees, saying higher education is critical to Chobani’s success.
“There’s a lot of talent in colleges,” Ulukaya said. “We need that knowledge. We have some amazing people on our team, but we need that training to help us.”
Training is continuing on the CSI campus through Friday. Chobani is expected to provide up to 500 jobs here, and company officials have said most will pay at least $14 an hour.
Mitch Watkins, Business Plus co-president, said the economic development organization is happy to help finance infrastructure for Chobani.
