About

Reese's is The Hershey Company's (NYSE: HSY) flagship candy brand — the top-selling candy brand in the United States by dollar sales for most years since the late 2000s — built around the chocolate-peanut butter combination pioneered by H.B. Reese (a Hershey employee) in 1928 and sold to The Hershey Company in 1963. Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (the core product), Reese's Pieces (peanut butter candy in a sugar shell), Reese's Thins, Reese's Sticks, Reese's Fast Break, Reese's Puffs cereal, and dozens of seasonal shapes (eggs at Easter, pumpkins at Halloween, trees at Christmas) collectively generate an estimated $2+ billion in annual US retail sales.
