Say Hola! to Mexican chocolate

Coming very soon to a convenience store near you:

Production at The Hershey Co.'s plant in Monterrey, Mexico, is under way, the company said Thursday. The company would not reveal much more, except to say it expects to ramp up production there as the year progresses.

The Monterrey plant is the centerpiece of the manufacturing realignment program Hershey announced in February 2007. Hershey intends to eliminate at least a third of its manufacturing lines in the U.S. and Canada and shift some production to the 200,000-square-foot Monterrey facility.
