The first thing you notice at the Hershey plant on Kansas Street is the minty smell.

The light and refreshing scent is almost everywhere in the 450,000-square-foot space: in the lobby, in the hallways, in the offices and on much of the factory floor.

And if you don’t smell mint, there’s a chance it’s because you’re smelling licorice.

The aromas pervading the plant are the result of the massive operation running 24 hours a day, five days a week.

Each day, it makes about 60,000 pounds of Ice Breakers Gum, which is 300,000 pounds a week and more than 15 million pounds a year.

Add that to the 22 million pounds of Ice Breaker Mints and Good & Plenty Licorice, and you’ve got 37 million pounds of Hershey candy coming out of Memphis annually.

In fact, the plant is the exclusive global producer of Ice Breaker products — which means all the Ice Breakers gum and mints bought worldwide were created and packaged in the Bluff City.
