Pringles is an iconic American brand of stackable potato-based chips, originally invented by Procter & Gamble (P&G) in 1968. The brand was developed to solve consumer complaints about broken and greasy chips, leading to its signature hyperbolic paraboloid shape and cylindrical canister. In 2012, P&G sold the brand to Kellogg's (now Kellanova) for approximately $2.7 billion. In a landmark industry shift, Mars, Incorporated completed its acquisition of Kellanova in December 2025, making Mars the ultimate owner of the Pringles brand globally as of 2026.

Pringles are produced in several high-tech manufacturing facilities worldwide to serve different regions. Major plants are located in Jackson, Tennessee (USA), Mechelen (Belgium), Kutno (Poland), Johor (Malaysia), and Fujian (China). The 'Hot Cheese & Chilli' variant is part of the brand's 'Hot' range (formerly Sizzl'n), designed to appeal to consumers looking for adventurous and spicy flavor profiles.
