Snyder's of Hanover is a bakery and snack food distribution company based in Hanover, Pennsylvania, specializing in pretzels. Snyder's of Hanover is the #1 pretzel company in the United States (surpassing even Frito Lay), and also the global leader in pretzel sales. Snyder's of Hanover is the #2 salty snack foods company overall. Its products are sold throughout the United States, Canada, many European nations, Asia, and in the Middle East. The bakery offers 25 varieties of traditional pretzels and in addition, pretzel pieces, pretzel sandwiches, chocolate-coated pretzels, organic and gluten-free pretzels, potato chips, and other snack foods.

Snyder's of Hanover traces its roots to two different companies. In 1909, Harry V. Warehime founded the Hanover Pretzel Company, which later became Hanover Foods Corporation, and in 1923, Helen and William Snyder founded a separate pretzel bakery and distributor. The companies came together in the early 1960s, when Hanover purchased Snyder's and rechristened the division Snyder's of Hanover. After entering multiple other snack markets during the 1960s and 1970s, Snyder's eventually returned to its original focus of pretzels and potato chips. In 1981, Hanover spun off Snyder's, which became an independent company.
