Tour of the
USA PEZ FACTORY!

We were there in March 1996. Before you think about it, PEZ Candy Company is an FDA regulated factory and they do not give tours. We covered the story of our trip to the factory in the April/May 1996 issue and the August/September 1996 issue. We even interviewed the "PEZident" of PEZ Mr. Scott McWhinnie. This was a first for any PEZ newsletter. Here are some pictures from the inside of the PEZ factory in the United States. This is where all of the PEZ candy is made for the United States.

The first picture is of silos that are above the factory floor. These silos contain the mixture that makes up PEZ candy bricks.
