Doritos Sweet Chilli Pepper corn chips

Doritos is one of the world's most recognizable snack brands, famous for its flavored tortilla chips. The brand was originally conceived at Disneyland in California during the early 1960s by Fritos founder Elmer Doolin, eventually launching nationally in the United States in 1966.

Today, Doritos is a global powerhouse managed by the Frito-Lay division. While the brand originated in the United States, it is manufactured in dozens of countries worldwide to serve local markets. In Europe, production facilities are located in countries such as the United Kingdom and the Netherlands to ensure freshness and regional availability.

Direct ownership of the brand lies with PepsiCo, a multinational food and beverage corporation headquartered in Purchase, New York. PepsiCo oversees the global distribution, marketing strategies, and product innovations for Doritos across various international markets, often operating through local subsidiaries like Smiths or Walkers depending on the region.
