Milton Hershey's first successful candy making making business was selling caramel. He started the Lancaster Caramel Company. In 1900, he decided that since his best selling items were caramels dipped in chocolate that he wanted to pursue chocolate making.
He sold his caramel company and with the proceeds bought 30 acres of dairy farm land and started perfecting his own recipe for good tasting and affordable Milk Chocolate (at the time milk chocolate was an expensive luxury).
He produced his first Hershey chocolate bar in 1900 and followed up with the production of Hershey Kisses in 1907. He broke ground on what is now the Hershey Foods Corporation on March 2, 1903.

It depends on which "Hershey" you refer to. Milton Hershey, founder of the great chocolate empire, first developed the land that would be known as "Hershey, PA" in 1900. The Hershey Chocolate manufacturing facility was first built in 1903. Hershey Park (now Hersheypark) first opened in 1905, and The Hershey Industrial School for Orphan Boys (now known as the Milton S. Hershey school) was founded in 1909. Interestingly enough, the "town" of Hershey is not a town at all, but rather a "census deisgnated place" within Derry Township, PA that has never been incorporated into its own municipality.
