Walkers is one of the United Kingdom's most iconic snack brands, originally founded by Henry Walker in 1948 in Leicester. The brand began as a way to diversify a butchery business during post-war meat rationing, eventually becoming the leading crisp manufacture in Britain. The product shown is their classic Salt & Vinegar flavour, which is widely recognized by its distinctive green packaging in the UK market.
While the brand holds a deeply British identity and uses 100% British potatoes, its ownership transitioned to the American multinational PepsiCo in 1989. Today, Walkers operates the world's largest crisp factory in Leicester and remains a core part of PepsiCo's global snack portfolio. Despite being owned by a US-based entity, the manufacturing and brand heritage remain firmly rooted in the United Kingdom.
