Hershey’s vs. Mars MGT 250 Irini Bua Stephanie Deodat Sawhill Busre Charlie DiMaggio Piji Chen Karina Moscoso

History – Hershey’s In 1894, Milton Hershey made a decision to open a company to produce chocolate. It was named Hershey Chocolate Company and was located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. In 1900, the company originally began producing milk chocolate in bars, wafers, and other shapes. Chocolate being a “luxurious” item, Hershey made it affordable for all. By 1905, Hershey’s Co. became a complete success. Milton Hershey built a new factory in Derry Township, PA, where ports provided imported sugar and cocoa beans, and dairy farms resided in the area. In 1907, Hershey’s Kisses chocolates were introduced as well as Mr. Goodbar Candy Bar (1925), Hershey’s Syrup (1926), and the Krackel Bar (1938).

History - Hershey’s cont. When World War II began, Hershey’s Co. started producing a survival ration bar for military use, where they earned five Army-Navy “E” Production Awards for their contributions. H.B. “Harry” Reese’s Candy Company and Hershey’s Chocolate Corp. had a good relationship. When Reese died in 1956, Reese’s Co. was sold to Hershey’s. Renamed to Hershey Foods Corporation in 1968, it expanded to product lines and food products. Today, Hershey Company is one of the leading manufacturers of chocolate and non-chocolate products in North America. Hershey’s Co. also have expanded worldwide and have operations in more than 90 countries.

History – Mars Mars began in 1911 as the Mar-O-Bar Co., a snack food business founded by Frank C. Mars of Tacoma, Washington, who made a variety of buttercream candy in his home In 1920, Mars relocated to larger quarters in Minneapolis, where Milky Way bars (1923) were created. Milky Way bars became an instant success. Later, Mars moved to Chicago in need of more space because of expansion in 1929. In 1930, Snickers brand (without the chocolate coating) and 3 Musketeers (1932) is launched. Mars Limited is renamed Mars Confectionery.

History – Mars cont. In 1932, Forrest Mars (Frank Mars’s son) goes to the United Kingdom to pursue his dream of building a business. While there, Mars enters into the Petcare business. He later returned in 1940 to the United States and founded M&M Limited in Newark, New Jersey, to manufacture chocolate candies in a sugar shell. In 1943, Mars ventured into the main meal business, which included a wide selection of rice products, including whole grain, savory, boil-in-bag, fast cook, instant, and frozen rice as well as other products. It was named Uncle Ben’s Incorporated

History – Mars cont. Throughout the years, Mars, Inc. went nationwide and worldwide with their confectionery, pet food, and other food products in more than 100 countries. In 2009, Mars, Incorporated becomes the first global chocolate company to commit to fundamentally changing the way sustainable cocoa farming practices are advanced.

Competition between Hershey Co. & Mars Inc. The Competition Competition between Hershey Co. & Mars Inc.

Their Competition Aside from themselves, both Hershey Co. and Mars Inc. have the same two main competitors within their targeted industry. Their two main competitors within the candy and the snack food industry are Nestlé S.A. Mondelez International Inc.

The Rivalry The Hershey Company and Mars Inc. have always been fierce competitors. They have clashed with each other in the past and will continue to do so in hope of gaining market share. Although both Hershey Co. and Mars Inc. both produce and manufacture a vast variety of products, their competitive rivalry comes mainly from their candy products with Hershey’s Kisses and Mars’ M&Ms being the top contenders.

Top Company Brands

America’s Favorite Chocolate In the constant battle of the candy brands, Hershey's Kisses are the top rated chocolate candy brand for the fifth time in eight years. America's favorite little chocolate candy unseats one of its most enduring competitors, M&M's Plain Chocolate Candy, which has occupied the top spot whenever Hershey's Kisses doesn't. Hershey’s Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups has consistently appeared in the top ten list over the past eight years and for the first time has had a rated higher than M&Ms.

America’s Top Chocolate Brands This year, Hershey's and Mars candy products dominate the top chocolate brands. Hersey's brands include Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Candy Bars, Kit Kat Bars, and Reese's Pieces, which came top Within the Mars family, Peanut M&M's, Snickers, and Twix also make the list of top brands.

Top non-Chocolate Candy Brands As for the non-chocolate candy, Mars’ Life Savers Candy takes the top spot, while Hershey’s Jolly Rancher Candy came in second. Other non-chocolate brands making the top of the list include Tootsie Pops, Skittles, and Starburst. Mars Inc. trumps the top gum brands as they own Extra Gum which leads the top of the Brands, as well as 5 Gum, and Orbit.

Hershey’s Strengths Huge market share in North America Marketed with more than 50 brand names High Quality(85% of their chocolate lineup is pure) Good Corporate responsibility and community involvement huge market share with 42.5% of chocolate in U.S in 2008. Many known brand like different type of Hershey bar, Reese bar, Kisses, Bliss and Twizzlers They have high quality products where 85% of chocolate lineup is pure. Organize community events, donations, established Milton Hershey school for orphan boy. They even got a hotline for students/professor to call to get information

Hershey’s Weaknesses Centralized management; No divisional manager. Not able to establish global channels of distribution. Less than 10% sales are outside of U.S. Mostly chocolate/candy based products. Centralized management, less reaction times with sales and management issue. Most of the sales is in The U.S. There is little global presence. Very few multinational distributors. Most of Hershey products is chocolate, gum and candy. As growing number of diabetes and health concern, it going become a threat to Hershey products.

Mars Inc. Strengths Large global presence Named one of best companies to work for Diverse products High brand preference to consumers (M&M) Big community involvement It has global presence over 73 countries. Direct to map It ranked by Fortune 95th out of 100 companies as best companies to work for. Also ranked 19th out of 25 best global companies to work for. It has diverse amount of products not only focus on chocolate. Wrigley(Gums), Mars food and drinks, pets food. Why is that a good thing? Because consumers are changing their lifestyle for more healthy foods. Mars have high brand preference to consumers especially to teenagers. Chocolate like M&M. Estimated about 30% of North America Mars workforce volunteered.

Mars Inc. Weaknesses Lack of innovation to create new candy bars Too many products Milky Way’s has low sales percentage on U.S Private-owned Company Too many products can also be a weakness because you need more employee and plants and more expense to promote them all. Because M&M is the flagship products of Mars, it steal most of the promotion and advertising. It lead to other products like milky way’s left with a lower sale percentage. Mars is a private company so it has limited managerial and financial resources. No public stocks so fewer shareholders.

Management – Hershey’s Invest in programs and education that enable  employees to achieve and maintain healthy lifestyles. Wellness programs include: The Chocolatetown Challenge, “The Old Switcharoo” , and a walk-to-run 5K clinic. There were no work-related fatalities at any Hershey facility in 2010; Hershey has not had an employee work-related fatality in the past 25 years.

The Chocolatetown Challenge A fitness and wellness challenge designed to promote health, and friendly competition among the employees, retirees and families of seven companies within the Hershey, Pennsylvania community.  Has taken place annually since 2008.  This year’s event included a 5k race and 1 mile fun/run walk, physical fitness activities and a health fair.

The Old Switcharoo Designed to shift employee’s focus away from big lifestyle changes that may be overwhelming to smaller, everyday changes.  Participants swap a less healthy habit like watching television for a healthier habit like walking 10 minutes

Other Wellness Programs “WaterWorks”-  Provides educational resources to help participants understand how much water they need and how they can get hydration from other sources. “Spring into Fitness”- A wellness initiative to jumpstart fitness for the spring and summer months. “Get Fit on Route 66,”- Participants trace the famous route of the legendary highway by tracking the amount of time they spend exercising.

Management - Mars Inc. Employees and even the president have to punch in every day at most Mars sites , if you're late, you get docked 10% of your pay.  The company encourages  the idea of developing cross- division talent .If you've had enough of Skittles brand management experience, you might find yourself working in one of the companies other brands like the pet food division Employees have the freedom to experiment with ideas and management has the patience to train.

“Five Principles of Mars” Quality  Responsibility  Mutuality  Efficiency Freedom.  The principles are on the walls of its 400 offices and manufacturing sites in 73 countries

Community Involvement Mars Volunteers : Employees get paid time off to clean parks, aid medical clinics, and plant gardens Mars Ambassadors: Highly competitive   Only a select few  spend up to six weeks working with Mars-related partners in remote areas; for example, six employees spent a week in Ghana with growers of cocoa beans.

Marketing Strategy – Hershey’s Selection of the right target market when it comes to promoting a certain product is vital. Hershey’s chocolate was originally known to target only children, however, over the last decade, marketing strategies have been more focused towards adult.

Marketing Strategy – Hershey’s cont. Hershey highly relies on in store promotion as well the quality and history of their products to attract customers Bite size candies are more appealing to adults because they feel less guilty about indulging their sweet tooth. Hershey had dramatically decreased advertising spending but after great criticism released a new marketing plan due to increased competition by companies such as Mars Inc.

Marketing Strategy – Mars Inc. Mars Inc. relies heavily on digital advertising such as commercials Targets all age groups with a variety of products besides chocolate Mars chocolate is drastically growing in popularity due to heavy focus on advertising products such as M&M’s

Marketing Strategy - Mars Inc. Strengths Weaknesses Mars is a highly recognized and preferred brand by customers Large variety of products Highly known and demanded in international markets Well known advertising Lack of creativity when it comes to creating new types of chocolates Most advertising money is aimed towards M&M’s Many products that it has to promote Hershey’s still leads in US chocolate production and consumption
