Expanding our Hershey's Horizons

It was with some amazement that we learned of the closing of Hershey's Gifts catalog business and website this summer.  Along with several other major catalog businesses, The Hershey Company decided to focus more on their core business of selling directly to retail chains versus direct to consumers.

It seems like this decision was probably made long before the economic crisis of 2009, and could be attributed more to a simple strategy shift.  Over the past several years, The Hershey Company has been acquiring brands such as specialty chocolate maker, Scharffen Berger and Hawaiian nut company Mauna Loa which have taken it further away from some of its core business.
 
The good news for Carson customers is that the shift has given us an opportunity to grow our own Hershey's Gifts business.  Utilizing our 16,000 sq. ft. facility and purchasing power, we have partnered with some of the best packaging businesses in the U.S. in order to grow and expand our own gift products.  While we already have created a very strong personalized gift business, we now also offer non personalized gift items filled with the freshest Hershey's chocolate you can buy anywhere, because we get ours directly from Hershey, PA.
 
So while The Hershey Company continues to focus on making the World's Best Chocolate, there is even more opportunity for Carson to bring that great chocolate to you either personalized or non personalized in our new and exciting gift packaging for almost every occasion.

Judging by our blog updates,  I am sure it seems like we have all fallen asleep here at Carson, I can assure you that nothing could be further from the truth.  In fact, we are working harder than ever.

Here are some of the recent goings on....

Our Creative Production department has been working on new product ideas and wrapper designs that are being added weekly to our New Web Site.  You can find the latest and greatest designs in our most popular categories, such as birth, wedding and birthday.

And did I mention our NEW WEB SITE !   I can hardly express how excited we all are to finally be able to share the new wrappedhersheys.com with our customers.  Over 12 months of work all geared toward making our customers experience the best it could possibly be.  But the work is still not done.. over the next several months we will continue to add new and exciting products and tweak the site to ensure that it is the most user friendly experience possible.

Please come back and visit often, as you will no doubt see something new each time, including all new gift items for all occasions.  Allow us to send gifts to the most important people on your list this Halloween and Holiday Season.
