New York - The Turkish Hamdi Ulukaya, boss-founder Chobani fresh dairy products, will give 10% of the company's capital to its approximately 2,000 employees, said Wednesday the US group.

The decision comes into debate on wage inequality, which occupy an important place in the election campaign for the White House.

"From today, I will have 2,000 new partners Chobani. This is one of the best times of my life," wrote on his Twitter account Mr. Ulukaya, who founded Chobani in New Berlin, in the State of New York, and began marketing its first yogurt in October 2007.

The 10% transferred to employees are part of the 80% held by Mr Ulukaya, the balance (20%) belonging to TPG California funds which invested $ 750 million in Chobani in 2014.

The number of shares distributed to each of the 2,000 employees will depend on seniority within the company. The share of the first employees could be valued at a million dollars, according to the dairy group. Mr. Ulukaya will remain majority shareholder even if his participation will be diluted.

Chobani is also in negotiations to sell 10 to 20% of additional capital, which would value the group at more than $ 3 billion, had said in October AFP a source close to the matter.

Coca-Cola and PepsiCo in search of growth opportunities, are interested but TPG could tamp the pawn them and increase participation.

The Chobani employees are paid above the minimum legal hourly wage, according to the New York Times and have good health coverage and other benefits.

Employee actionariat is a common practice in the technology environment to attract the best talent.

Before Mr. Ulukaya, Dan Price, a young start-up boss had divided a year ago its earnings by 14 to bring in $ 70,000 annual minimum wage in his business - Gravity Payments.

Chobani holds the US market share of 44% of the segment of so-called yogurt "Greek" valued at $ 8 billion, according to Sanford Bernstein cabinet.

Despite several trials in Asia and Europe, the dairy group had stored a few months ago its international expansion projects for development of coffee-concepts, marketing venues Chobani products.

Chobani, which is not publicly traded, was a quack in its rapid ascent in 2013 by recalling expired products manufactured at its plant in Idaho (northwest) to which it made its biggest investment (450 millions of dollars).
