Lay's Gourmet Corte Fino potato chips

Lay's Gourmet Corte Fino is a premium line of potato chips specifically developed for the Spanish and Iberian markets. These chips are characterized by an extra-fine cut, providing a delicate and extra-crunchy texture compared to standard chips. They are typically slow-cooked in sunflower oil and lightly salted to enhance the natural flavor of the potatoes.

The manufacturing for this specific product is localized in Spain to ensure freshness. PepsiCo Foods Iberia operates production facilities such as the plant in Burgos, where these 'Corte Fino' chips are produced and packaged for distribution across the country. The brand's presence in Spain dates back to 1998, when PepsiCo formally introduced the Lay's label to replace or complement existing local snack brands like Matutano.

Ownership of the brand lies with PepsiCo, a global food and beverage giant headquartered in the United States. PepsiCo manages the brand through its Frito-Lay division, which was formed in 1961 and merged with Pepsi-Cola in 1965. Today, PepsiCo remains the ultimate owner, overseeing a worldwide portfolio that adapts its products to regional tastes while maintaining the global recognition of the Lay's sun logo.
