Over the years, MrBeast has proven that he has great business acumen. The YouTuber has found success in every venture he has started from Beast Burgers to Feastables. While his primary source of income remains his YouTube career, his brand Feastables is also a focus for the star. His promotions for the brand are the reason why he’s established himself as a contender among giants like Hershey’s.
The brand made its products available to the public in January 2022. Within months, the brand was making about $10 million in revenue. This has disrupted the market, which had been dominated by Hershey’s.

MrBeast gives his take on the competition with Hershey’s
One thing that has been gaining a lot of attention online is the competition between Hershey’s and Feastables. Investors believe Hershey’s is a safe bet as it has been a key player in the US chocolate market for over a century. But the steady rise of Feastables makes it a worthy contender.
With Feastables gaining more and more customers, the future of Hershey’s is in question. Amid his war on the chocolate giant, MrBeast has advised fans not to short the stock of the rival company, calling it “lame”.
I wouldn’t recommend shorting a company, seems lame. But I will say these next few years between Feastables and Hershey’s will be interesting once I actually ramp up.

The YouTuber has also added, “But I will say these next few years between Feastables and Hershey’s will be interesting once I actually ramp up.” This implies that he is preparing some exciting promotions for his brand. His recent exclusive video for the fans who buy Feastables bars is probably just the start. With some help from his followers, Feastables could very well turn into a nightmare for Hershey’s.
YouTuber’s community is promoting Feastables in their own way
Recently a fan took inspiration from MrBeast’s philanthropy to promote Feastables. The fan brought all the broken Feastables bars that were not being sold at Walmart and then went on to give these bars for free. He did this to promote the exclusive Feastables-only video to MrBeast’s fans.
Similarly, a fan made an ad for the Feastables bar on their own. With such a huge amount of support from the fans pouring in, Feastables is sure to become a top contender in the chocolate industry. What are your thoughts on MrBeast’s Feastables? Let us know in the comments section below.
