NORWICH, NY – Today Chobani, America's #1 selling yogurt brand, celebrates the grand opening of its second domestic manufacturing facility. Located in Twin Falls, Idaho, Chobani has invested $450 million to build this one million square foot, world-class operation in less than 11 months. Chobani broke ground on the 200-acre site in December 2011 and began construction earlier this year. Phases one and two of the project were completed in an unprecedented 326 days, thanks to the hard work and dedication of over 2,000 men and women who put in over 1.7 million man hours to build the state-of-the-art facility from the ground-up. "At Chobani, we're makers. Our business has been built one cup at a time, by the hands of our people," said Hamdi Ulukaya, Founder, President and CEO of Chobani."
Unprecedented in this sentence: “..unprecedented 326 days, thanks to the hard work and dedication of over 2,000 men and women who put in over 1.7 million man hours..”
does not mean what they apparently think it means as 1.7MM man-hours with 2000+ men/woment in 326 days means about 2.6 hours per person per day. Not impressed.
Effect, meet cause.
