As NASA’s Artemis II mission brought humanity back toward the Moon, we were reminded that exploration has always been fueled by innovation—and a little sweetness. 🍫 Hershey has been part of that journey for decades. In 1971, a Hershey’s Tropical Chocolate Bar traveled to the Moon with the Apollo 15 astronauts, engineered to perform in extreme conditions. Even earlier, a 1963 Krackel bar promotion invited fans to mail in their wrapper label and address to receive a NASA patch—an imaginative nod to the Space Race and the era’s shared spirit of ingenuity. Past, present and future—where curiosity leads, we’re proud to be along for the journey. 🌕✨ #Innovation #Legacy #HersheyHistory #Hersheys

Hershey brought the hype (and the snacks) to Final Four Weekend! Reese’s took center court, bringing “Everything Happens for a Reese’s” to life. Bracket bust? Win a Reese’s. No way to lose! The Reese’s College All-Star game and Final Four Friday event brought fans together through interactive games, photo ops and of course, free giveaways. Not to be outdone, Shaquille O'Neal hosted his Big Podcast while his Shaq-A-Licious SLAMS truck rolled through Indy with interactive pop-ups and gummy surprises. Beyond the hype, we were honored to partner with Operation Homefront to celebrate the families who serve our communities. Alongside Walmart, we treated military families to a shopping spree, each one paired with a College All-Star player for a truly memorable day. Who’s already looking forward to next year?!

The scent of chocolate in the air. Buzz on the trading floor. We pulled back the curtain on Hershey’s next chapter of growth today at our NYSE takeover. Investors and analysts had a true taste of what’s coming: fresh, consumer-led innovation across confection, salty and protein, sharper creative that breaks through, and more. More than 130 years in, and we have the bold ideas, energy and enthusiasm of a team just getting started. We’re expanding our portfolio to show up in more places and more moments, going to market as ONE Hershey portfolio of brands, using tech to make and sell smarter and building the momentum to keep investing. All of this is to grow with purpose and perform with confidence. https://lnkd.in/gh9fhpCM
