HAVOC snacks are a new series of products for the Canadian market that prioritize bold flavor that will provide shoppers with an alternative option to pick up in the snack aisle.
The snacks come in three varieties including the Fiery Lime Flavored Rolled Tortilla Chips, Smoky Nacho Twisted Corn Chips and the Bulgogi Blaze Flavored Potato Chips. The snacks were developed with the taste preferences of Gen Z consumers in mind and thus have bold, spicy notes throughout that also maintain cuisine-inspired notes. The snacks are available now starting at $2.19.
Chief Marketing Officer at PepsiCo Foods Canada Jess Spaulding spoke on HAVOC snacks further saying, "HAVOC was born out of the desire to provide Canadians with a multisensorial experience paired with a unique combination of intense flavors. Every aspect of this brand from the flavors, shapes, to packaging design, has been carefully considered and developed to connect directly with Canadian Gen Z consumers who enjoy bold, spicy flavors."
