The Hershey Company

The Hershey Company started out its company with assembly processing but with technology and the demand for the chocolate it soon grew and began to use process manufacturing. The process for making chocolate is a little lengthy and therefore assembly would take too much time. I found a website called http://www.thehersheycompany.com where it gives a description of making chocolate and has picture of some of the large machinery and molds that make the delicious chocolate. The chocolate making process is a continuous process because of the demand for it. The company also has companies in many other countries and choses its locations by long term growth potential. What it exports to other countries depends highly on which products of Hershey the people are looking to purchase. If this is a country with a great desire for the chocolate than the company searches for another company to merge with and therefore have its foot in another door for a manufacturing company in that country.
