Does Certs test on animals?
No public animal-testing policy; Hershey does not test finished products on animals unless required by law, but ingredient testing by suppliers is possible.
Animal testing rarely happens at the brand's own bench. The questions that decide the answer are whether suppliers test, whether the parent company tests, and whether the brand sells through channels that can require post-market testing.
