Lay's Barbecue Flavored Potato Chips

Lay's is one of the world's most iconic snack brands, originally founded in the United States in the early 1930s. The brand was established by Herman Lay, who started a snack food business in Nashville, Tennessee, and eventually merged with the Frito Company in 1961 to form Frito-Lay. Since 1965, the brand has been under the ownership of PepsiCo, a global leader in the food and beverage industry.

As a global brand, Lay's products are manufactured in dozens of countries across the world to serve local markets efficiently. The specific bag shown features an 'Export' label, suggesting it may have been produced in one region for distribution in another. PepsiCo maintains a massive global supply chain that sources local potatoes and seasoning to produce these chips in regional facilities across North America, Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
