Hamdi Ulukaya, the owner of America’s top-selling brand of Greek yogurt, says an essential part of the success of his company was hiring refugees. Ulukaya doesn’t hire refugees for cheap labor; he doesn’t believe in this notion. Instead, he hires refugees because they are so keen to provide for their community. They empower his workforce and enrich the company culture, which in turn, helps to run a better business.
