Frito-Lay job cuts won't hit Topeka
Frito-Lay will lay off 300 employees as part of 3,300 job cuts announced Tuesday by its parent company PepsiCo., but the Topeka plant won't be affected, a Topeka business leader said.
Frito-Lay spokeswoman Aurora Gonzalez said 130 job cuts would take place at Frito-Lay headquarters in Plano, Texas. The other cuts would be in the field around the country, she said. "Nearly all of these are managerial positions,"she said.

The company will close a Frito-Lay plant with 59 employees in Quebec, Canada, Gonzalez said.
