Guy's Snacks Corporation is a snack foods manufacturer and distributor based in Overland Park, Kansas, with a target market being the Midwest.

The company was founded by Guy and Frances Caldwell in 1938 as "Guy's Nut and Candy Company", so named because it sold roasted peanuts throughout the Kansas City area.

At one time the company had 1,000 employees in its Liberty, Missouri plant. It was sold to Borden Food Corporation in 1979. Borden sold it in 1994. It went into bankruptcy in 2001.

It has since emerged from bankruptcy and is now based in Kansas
