This question is about how you contextualize your answer and the attitude you bring from your previous employer to your next. How you answer will inform them whether the issues you faced with your past employers may carry over into this role. Frito Lay advertises that they evaluate their employees "based on merits and performance, so you can grow your career with us in ways that are unique to you." Focus your answer on that.

"I decided to look for other jobs because I have already been promoted twice, and there is no more room for growth. This position at Frito Lay will give me more experience as a manager and help me cultivate my leadership skills."

Be honest about your situation while using discretion with what you share. For example, if you are leaving because you had issues with your manager, your interviewer will wonder whether you have issues with those in positions of authority. However, sharing how the leadership style and culture wasn't a good fit for you, professionally or personally, sends a different message. Their ideal candidates are interested in the growth opportunities their company presents. So, be specific about what you believe this position has to offer and why you feel working at Frito-Lay would be mutually beneficial to you and them.
