About

Doritos is a tortilla chip brand owned by Frito-Lay, a division of PepsiCo, with origins tracing to Disneyland's Casa de Fritos restaurant in Anaheim, California, where the triangular corn chips were first served in the early 1960s. Frito-Lay began national distribution in 1966, and Doritos rapidly became one of the best-selling snack chip brands in the United States. The brand was built around bold flavors — most famously Nacho Cheese, introduced in 1972, and Cool Ranch, launched in 1986 — and an irreverent, youth-oriented marketing identity that set the template for snack brand advertising for decades.\n\nDoritos' product portfolio spans dozens of flavor varieties across its core tortilla chip line, including Nacho Cheese, Cool Ranch, Spicy Nacho, Flamin' Hot, and seasonally rotating limited editions. In 2024, Frito-Lay launched Dinamita Stacked, a new product line layering multiple flavors in a single chip, targeting the growing consumer appetite for snack innovation and intensity. The brand's marketing has been defined by culturally provocative campaigns — including its long-running Super Bowl advertising presence and its Crash the Super Bowl user-generated content contest — and collaborations across gaming, music, and pop culture.\n\nDoritos generates more than $2 billion in annual retail sales, consistently ranking among the top three tortilla chip brands in the United States. As part of PepsiCo's Frito-Lay division — the undisputed leader in US salty snacks with over $19 billion in annual net revenue — Doritos benefits from Frito-Lay's unmatched direct-store delivery network, shelf space relationships with major retailers, and manufacturing scale. Sixty years after its national launch, Doritos remains the defining brand in flavored tortilla chips and a benchmark for snack innovation and bold flavor marketing.
