The company is now thrilled to be celebrating its next step in supporting Canadiana by announcing an exciting partnership with Canada's newest NHL team, as the official potato chip of the Winnipeg Jets!
"As a hockey-loving nation, I know I speak for a great many Canadians when I say how proud we are to welcome the Winnipeg Jets into the Canadian sports arena,"says Jason McDonell, vice-president of marketing, PepsiCo Foods Canada. "Teaming up with the Winnipeg Jets was a natural and obvious fit for us - two brands who value hometown pride and enjoy supporting Canadian communities."
