About Us
It all started over 15 years ago in Dubai. A mission to create the healthiest, tastiest, most scrumptious potato chips and corn snacks out there! You can now find us creating these tantalizing treats in Hail, North Riyadh in Saudi Arabia. Why Hail?
To make sure you get the freshest potato chips possible, and since that’s where all the potato farms are located, we’ve made sure we’re close by.
Did you know that XL potato chips are never over a week old when they reach you? and that XL is specially packed in two layers just to make sure they stay extra fresh?
That’s right! Two layers! The inner metalized foil layer prevent the air from coming in, and the outer layer prevents the sun from coming in. The jeans design in different colors, makes them pretty cool to look at too, and therefore easy to choose your preferred flavor!
Our chips are so good, you can find them in schools, institutions, sport clubs, parks and cinemas, and that’s because they are not only scrumptious but they’re also healthy. We only use the freshest potatoes with no added artificial flavoring or colors, and less oil than any other potato chip.
Not only is it healthy, XL is completely Halal. It comes in the following flavors: French Cheese, Paprika, BBQ, Salt, Salt and Vinegar, Jalapeño, and Ketchup, flavors to suit every taste.
You don’t have to worry about eating too much, XL comes in 4 different sizes, 14, 27, 70, 140 gm, so you can either eat them individually or share with your family and friends. You can find XL all over the Gulf States and in Jordan, Palestine, Iraq, Syria, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Seychelles.
The XL factory is ISO and HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) quality standard implemented.

Me too. I also remember when creme eggs came with different coloured wrappers, red, blue and green iirc. I always associate those with Alf Turley’s shop on the Annan Road for some forgotten reason. My gran would have killed me for setting foot in Turley’s had she known as she had a shop just up the road. Lang syne.
Hi guys, sorry for gatecrashing this post but I'm rounding up pledges to save Striker. Many of you will be aware of the comic strip which runs in The Sun. Well there's a good chance it will end for good if we can't raise enough money. If you're interested please check out their Kickstarter page. P.S. I also love Cheese XL
