USA, CA: Anchor Brewing to be purchased by Chobani yogurt CEO - report
Anchor Brewing will have a new owner almost a year after the legendary San Francisco brewery abruptly went out of business, ABC7 News reported on May 31.
Anchor will be purchased by the 51-year-old billionaire founder and CEO of Chobani yogurt, Hamdi Ulukaya, ABC7 News sources have confirmed.
He is reportedly buying the brewery lock, stock and barrel. It's believed Ulukaya has been meeting or will meet with stakeholders.
