Chobani is giving away free yogurt to all Americans for the next 3 weeks
When a company becomes so large and its products or service so engrained in our lives — think Uber, AirBnb, Spotify — it becomes easy to forget that they were once startups with no financial prowess, no followings and no public reputation.
Chobani is one of those companies.
Chobani founder Hamdi Ulukaya:
To many, it’s become the epitome of Greek yogurt and a go-to staple for breakfast, lunch or even a snack.
That’s why the company is giving back to all those who have made it so, as the company celebrates its 10th year in 2018.
From now until March 4, any American consumer can visit a participating retail store to snag a free cup of Chobani Greek Yogurt, Chobani Flip, Chobani drink or two pack of Chobani Smooth.
All you have to do is print a coupon here and bring it in — no purchase necessary and no strings attached (except you’re going to want to bring your own spoon!)
Chobani CEO and Founder Hamdi Ulukaya gushed:
"This way of saying thank you is something we've done since we first got started, and now we wanted to extend it to everyone in America. From the beginning, we wanted to make beautiful yogurt that's as good as what nature gives us, create it with the most amazing people, make it available to everyone, and follow the values that we all learn and live by.”
This also comes as a way for the yogurt brand to capitalize on its efforts towards becoming the number one yogurt manufacturer in the U.S., seeing as 2/3 of people across the United States still have not heard of Chobani, according to an Ipsos study.
But to Ulukaya, the growth is just a bonus to the people who have helped make the company what it is today:
“On behalf of everyone at Chobani, I want to say thank you. Thank you to everyone who saw us on the shelf, talked about us, recommended us to others, and gave us a chance.”
