Whether Hamdi Ulukaya wins a court fight with his ex-wife for control of Chobani LLC may have less to do with yogurt than it does with feta cheese.
Ayse Giray sued Ulukaya in 2012, saying she’s entitled to a controlling stake in the biggest Greek-style yogurt maker in the U.S. A New York state judge is set to hear arguments Tuesday over one of the key ingredients of her suit: that she was a part-owner of the feta cheese maker that she alleges was used by her ex-husband to start Chobani.
