Lay's Punto de Sal potato chips

Lay's is a world-renowned brand of potato chips that traces its roots back to 1932 when Herman Lay opened a snack food operation in Ohio and later merged with Frito-Lay. The brand has since become a global leader in the snack industry, recognized for its iconic thin crisps and variety of flavors adapted to local tastes worldwide.

In Spain, Lay's is a household staple, often manufactured locally in facilities such as those in Burgos. This localized production ensures freshness and supports regional supply chains. The 'Punto de Sal' variety is a classic flavor specifically marketed for the Spanish palate, emphasizing a balanced saltiness.

Today, Lay's is owned by PepsiCo, a multinational food and beverage giant headquartered in the United States. PepsiCo manages the brand through its Frito-Lay division globally, while operations in Spain are handled by PepsiCo Foods Iberia, which oversees production, distribution, and marketing for the Iberian Peninsula.
