Halloween jack-o-lantern in front of a orange background.

Uh-oh, Hershey announced there will likely be shortages of candy this Halloween. The horror!

Despite working on chocolate candy production since April, the company is having trouble keeping up with demand. It seems everyone is reaching for the chocolate treats these days.

Not only is demand up, but you guessed it…the global supply chain crisis and ingredient shortages are also to blame.

Come on fellow logistics professionals. Halloween is on the line. Pitch in and make it happen.
