Doritos Dips are the perfect complement to your favorite chips!

When food companies like PepsiCo look for more ways to get products into the hands of consumers, they often try to build on what already exists.

PepsiCo’s Gatorade recently announced a shift to boosters that support exercise recovery and a healthy immune system. 

Earlier this month, Frito-Lay debuted snack containers of its classic Doritos, Cheetos, and SunChips snacks, perfect for sharing with friends or taking on the go.


Doritos Dips is a logical growth path for a brand and division best known for its delicious snacks. Chips are often dipped in, for example, salsa or cheese. It makes sense that Doritos would try to capitalize on snack taste with a product that complements its fries and keeps consumers in the Frito-Lay family of products. 

PepsiCo’s Frito-Lay dipping sauce, which is also behind brands such as Fritos and Cheetos, allows the company to enter categories such as pizza or vegetables where it does not currently compete.

Although PepsiCo will probably never enter these regions, a well-known brand could make it a good choice if the buyer buys other products. In addition, dip can increase awareness of Doritos beyond the snack aisle and make it more likely that a shopper will impulsively throw a snack bag into their cart after seeing the dip.

“As Doritos disrupts the dip course with the launch of DORITOS Dips, our goal is to provide consumers with new and unexpected experiences,” Frito-Lay vice president of brand marketing Leslie Vesper said in a statement. 

"We hope DORITOS Dips will help fans think outside the box, just as we think outside the bag of chips with this innovation, whether paired with their favorite foods or other Doritos products."
Frito-Lay has dipped for many other brands, so Doritos Dips should be a natural extension of the brand. Lay's brand has Smooth Ranch and French Onion sauces. Toasties have chunky salsa and salsa con queso. Frito dips include jalapeno cheddar and mild cheddar.
