Hershey names insider Dave Hulays as CFO

Sept 2 (Reuters) - Hershey ‌on Wednesday ​named ​insider and industry veteran Dave Hulays as its finance chief, as the ‌Reese's chocolates maker navigates a tough ⁠macroeconomic environment while benefiting from robust demand and higher ‌prices.

• Before joining Hershey, Hulays spent nearly 15 years at Procter & ​Gamble in a range ‌of commercial, supply chain and global business development roles.

• The company said ⁠outgoing-CFO Voskuil, who has led Hershey's finance organization for the past seven years, will move into ⁠the role of SVP, Strategic Projects, focused on initiatives ​for the CEO and board. Voskuil also announced his intent to retire in early 2027.

• Hershey, which ‌beat second-quarter sales and profit estimates in July, has added more ‌salty snacks such as popcorn, cheese puffs ⁠and pretzels to its ‌Halloween range to ​attract health-conscious consumers.
