Hershey is a leading confectionery manufacturer in the U.S. (around a 25 billion market), controlling around 47% of the domestic chocolate space (per IRI). Beyond its namesake label, the firms mix has expanded over the last 85 years and now consists of 100 brands, including Reeses, Kit Kat, Kisses, and Ice Breakers. Hersheys products are sold in about 80 countries, albeit with just a high-single-digit percentage of sales coming from markets outside the U.S., including Brazil, India, and Mexico. The firm has sought inorganic opportunities to extend its reach beyond its core confection business, adding Amplify Snack Brands and its Skinny Pop ready-to-eat popcorn to its mix and Pirate Brands (including the Pirates Booty, Smart Puffs, and Original Tings brands) over the past few years.
