The fun-filled snack is meticulously manufactured using pure potatoes and promises 100 percent food value in every bite.

The chips are available in three flavours, cheese and onion, salted and hot and spicy and come multiple sizes, including 16 grams at Rs.70, 24 grams at Rs.100, 50 grams at Rs.200 and 73 grams at Rs.300. 


Additionally, it is also the only brand of potato chips that will be available at local grocery stores and leading supermarkets.


The strategist and driving force behind the revival of the Chirpy Chips brand is Uswatte Confectionery Works (Pvt.) Ltd Managing Director Shanura Perera. His vision is set to revolutionise the local snack food market by capturing hearts of snack food enthusiasts and making Chirpy Chips the number one snack food choice in the country.
