The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Pringles began in 1968 at Procter & Gamble's laboratory in Cincinnati, Ohio. Alexander Liepa designed the curved potato chip. They make stackable, uniform potato crisps in a cylindrical can. The distinctive shape and packaging became iconic immediately. Stacking chips in a tube solved a fundamental problem: breakage. The uniform saddle curve allowed efficient packing. Today Pringles operates in more than 140 countries. The brand dominates the premium snack segment globally. Among 21,133 tracked brands, Pringles ranks second in Food, Beverages & Snacks. The red and yellow can remains largely unchanged since launch. Kellogg Company acquired the brand from Procter & Gamble in 2012. Their factory in Mechelen, Belgium supplies much of Europe. Pringles sells billions of cans annually worldwide.
