Hershey to grow SkinnyPop with Weaver Popcorn Manufacturing facilities
The company has its eye on continued growth of its SkinnyPop line and other snack brands.
The Hershey Company has announced it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire two manufacturing plants from Weaver Popcorn Manufacturing, a recognized leader in popcorn production and co-packing, and a co-manufacturer of Hershey's SkinnyPop brand. Through the deal, Hershey will acquire Weaver's operations in Bethlehem, PA; and Whitestown, IN.
The acquisition is designed to enable the company to sustain strong growth for its SkinnyPop brand by strengthening internal supply chain capabilities in combination with its network of strategic suppliers and co-manufacturers.
