Mar. 1--Craving more than chocolate sales, Hershey Foods Corp. Monday said it has formed a new division to focus on snacks beyond the candy aisle.

The company said it has formed two business groups -- one to strengthen its position in candy and another to "expand its presence in the broader snacks market."

Thomas K. Hernquist, the company's senior vice president and chief marketing officer, will head up the U.S. confectionery group. Hernquist was not available for comment Monday.

A search is under way for a president of the snacks business.
