Cheetos is a world-renowned brand of crunchy corn puff snacks originally created in 1948 by Charles Elmer Doolin in the United States. Following the success of Fritos, Doolin developed Cheetos and eventually partnered with Lay's to form Frito-Lay, leading to the global expansion of the brand. Today, Cheetos are a staple in the savory snack market, recognized by their signature orange color and the iconic mascot, Chester Cheetah.

The brand is currently owned by PepsiCo, one of the largest food and beverage corporations in the world. While the brand originated in the USA, Cheetos are manufactured in numerous facilities across the globe to serve local markets, including the UK, Europe, and beyond. In the UK and Ireland, the brand is often associated with Walkers, which is also a subsidiary of PepsiCo. This global production network ensures that the product remains fresh and tailored to regional taste preferences.
