Most people think of PepsiCo as a soda company, but it's really a snack-food company that also sells drinks. Frito-Lay — Lay's, Doritos, Cheetos, Tostitos, Ruffles — is its crown jewel, dominating the global salty-snack market (well over half the US market) and more profitable than the namesake Pepsi soda; PepsiCo also owns Quaker Oats. So the company's identity is a kind of optical illusion: the beverage on the logo is not where most of the value or growth actually lives. This matters for supply chains because Frito-Lay makes PepsiCo one of the world's largest buyers of potatoes and corn — the snack business rests on a vast agricultural-procurement operation contracting with potato and corn farmers at enormous scale. The bag of chips, not the can of soda, is the heart of PepsiCo, and behind it sits industrial-scale farming that the brand's fizzy image never suggests.
