Position Overview:

We are PepsiCo

PepsiCo is one of the world’s leading food and beverage companies with more than $67 Billion in Net Revenue and a global portfolio of diverse and beloved brands. We have a complementary food and beverage portfolio that includes 22 brands that each generated more than $1 Billion in annual retail sales. PepsiCo’s products are sold in more than 200 countries and territories around the world. PepsiCo’s strength is its people. We are over 250,000 game changers, mountain movers and history makers, located around the world, and united by a shared set of values and goals.

We believe that acting ethically and responsibly is not only the right thing to do, but also the right thing to do for our business. At PepsiCo, we aim to deliver top-tier financial performance over the long term by integrating sustainability into our business strategy, leaving a positive imprint on society and the environment.

At PepsiCo, we know a better food system means better outcomes for people and the planet.

Over the past year, we have accelerated our efforts to help make the food system more sustainable, regenerative and inclusive. From how we source ingredients, make and sell our products in a more sustainable way, inspire consumers through our iconic brands to make better choices for themselves and the planet; to how we support communities and improve livelihoods throughout our supply chain, we are embracing our role as a leader among our peers and in our communities.

As well as being good for our business, working to realize this purpose is also the right thing to do. Where our food system may be operating in an unsustainable way, it can create supply chain, operational, and financial risks for our company. By contrast, addressing risks within our value chain and the wider food system effectively can create new opportunities for competitive advantage and future market growth, while also supporting the communities in which we operate.
