PepsiCo plans to increase prices on some smaller single-serve chip bags by 10 to 20 cents in the coming weeks due to higher production, distribution, and retail costs in the US. The price hikes are not directly related to the Iran war or energy price surges. This move affects bags currently priced around $2.69 and smaller bags often sold as two for $1. The company had previously exceeded Wall Street expectations partly due to price cuts on salty snacks in the US, but now is adjusting prices upward to manage increased expenses.
