Chobani Announces Plan for New NYC Headquarters, With Philanthropy Spaces Included

Oct. 25, 2024
Chobani House will feature office and innovation space for Chobani and its founder’s additional ventures, as well as spaces devoted to serving the community and social impact organizations.

Chobani LLC will move into a new headquarters in New York City, called Chobani House, in the fourth quarter of 2025 — a building that will combine business, community investment and impact, the company said in a release.

Chobani House will be located in NYC’s NoHo (North of Houston Street) neighborhood and will house the food company’s global business headquarters with employees in the office four days a week. It will also include an innovation center to support Chobani’s business as well as help eradicate world hunger through work with global food scientists. Additionally, the building will house an incubator lab for emerging NGOs and non-profits focused on social improvement (such as The Lower Eastside Girls Club, The Center for Wellbeing, and Hunger Free America, for example) — and a community kitchen that will prepare meals for those in need.

“Chobani House offers a new vision for the urban office that is about much more than just running the business,” Hamdi Ulukaya, Founder and CEO of Chobani, said of the development, which features more than 120,000 sq. ft. of space. Chobani has been headquartered in NYC for more than a decade.

According to the release, Chobani House will also be home to Ulukaya’s Tent Partnership for Refugees, a network of over 400 major companies committed to helping refugees in the Americas and Europe become job-ready and connecting them to work. The family office of Hamdi Ulukaya, Shepherd Futures, will also call Chobani House its new home. Shepherd Futures acquired Anchor Brewing in San Francisco in May 2024.
