A Brief Pepsi History

Born in the Carolinas in 1898, Pepsi-Cola has a long and rich history. The drink is
the invention of Caleb Bradham (left), a pharmacist and drugstore owner in New
Bern, North Carolina.

The information published here is provided by PepsiCo, Inc. and may be accessed
at their site: www.pepsi.com.

The summer of 1898, as usual, was hot and humid in New Bern, North Carolina. So
a young pharmacist named Caleb Bradham began experimenting with
combinations of spices, juices, and syrups trying to create a refreshing new drink to
serve his customers. He succeeded beyond all expectations because he invented the
beverage known around the world as Pepsi-Cola.

Caleb Bradham knew that to keep people returning to his pharmacy, he would have
to turn it into a gathering place. He did so by concocting his own special beverage, a
soft drink. His creation, a unique mixture of kola nut extract, vanilla and rareoils,
became so popular his customers named it "Brad's Drink." Caleb decided to
rename it "Pepsi-Cola," and advertised his new soft drink. People responded, and
sales of Pepsi-Cola started to grow, convincing him that he should form a company
to market the new beverage.

In 1902, he launched the Pepsi-Cola Company in the back room of his pharmacy,
and applied to the U.S. Patent Office for a trademark. At first, he mixed the syrup
himself and sold it exclusively through soda fountains. But soon Caleb recognized
that a greater opportunity existed to bottle Pepsi so that people could drink it
anywhere.

The business began to grow, and on June 16, 1903, "Pepsi-Cola" was officially
registered with the U.S. Patent Office. That year, Caleb sold 7,968 gallons of syrup,
using the theme line "Exhilarating, Invigorating, Aids Digestion." He also began
awarding franchises to bottle Pepsi to independent investors, whose number grew
from just two in 1905, in the cities of Charlotte and Durham, North Carolina, to 15
the following year, and 40 by 1907. By the end of 1910, there were Pepsi-Cola
franchises in 24 states.

Pepsi-Cola's first bottling line resulted from some less-than-sophisticated

engineering in the back room of Caleb's pharmacy. Building a strong franchise
system was one of Caleb's greatest achievements. Local
Pepsi-Cola bottlers, entrepreneurial in spirit and
dedicated to the product's success, provided a sturdy
foundation. They were the cornerstone of the Pepsi-
Cola enterprise. By 1907, the new company was selling
more than 100,000 gallons of syrup per year.

Growth was phenomenal, and in 1909 Caleb erected a

headquarters so spectacular that the town of New Bern
pictured it on a postcard. Famous racing car driver
Barney Oldfield endorsed Pepsi in newspaper ads as "A bully drink...refreshing,
invigorating, a fine bracer before a race."

The previous year, Pepsi had been one of the first companies in the United States to
switch from horse-drawn transport to motor vehicles, and Caleb's business
expertise captured widespread attention. He was even mentioned as a possible
candidate for Governor. A 1913 editorial in the Greensboro Patriot praised him for
his "keen and energetic business sense."

Pepsi-Cola enjoyed 17 unbroken years of success. Caleb now promoted Pepsi sales
with the slogan, "Drink Pepsi-Cola. It will satisfy you." Then cameWorld War I,
and the cost of doing business increased drastically. Sugar prices see sawed between
record highs and disastrous lows, and so did the price of producing Pepsi-Cola.
Caleb was forced into a series of business gambles just to survive, until finally, after
three exhausting years, his luck ran out and he was bankrupted. By 1921, only two
plants remained open. It wasn't until a successful candy manufacturer, Charles G.
Guth, appeared on the scene that the future of Pepsi-Cola was assured. Guth was
president of Loft Incorporated, a large chain of candy stores and soda fountains
along the eastern seaboard. He saw Pepsi-Cola as an opportunity to discontinue an
unsatisfactory business relationship with the Coca-Cola Company, and at the same
time to add an attractive drawing card to Loft's soda fountains. He was right. After
five owners and 15 unprofitable years, Pepsi-Cola was once again a thriving
national brand.
One oddity of the time, for a number of years, all of Pepsi-Cola's sales were actually
administered from a Baltimore building apparently owned by Coca-Cola, and
named for its president. Within two years, Pepsi would earn $1 million for its new
owner. With the resurgence came new confidence, a rarity in those days because the
nation was in the early stages of a severe economic decline that came to be known as
the Great Depression.

1898 Caleb Bradham, a New Bern,

North Carolina, pharmacist, renames
"Brad's Drink," a carbonated soft
drink he created to serve his
drugstore's fountain customers. The
new name, Pepsi-Cola, is derived from
two of the principal ingredients, pepsin
and kola nuts. It is first used on August
28.

1902 Bradham applies to the U.S. Patent Office for a trademark for the Pepsi-Cola
name.

1903 In keeping with its origin as a pharmacist's concoction, Bradham's advertising

praises his drink as "Exhilarating, invigorating, aids digestion."

1905 A new logo appears, the first change from the original created in 1898.

1906 The logo is redesigned and a new slogan added: "The original pure food
drink." The trademark is registered in Canada.

1907 The Pepsi trademark is registered in Mexico.

1909 Automobile racing pioneer Barney Oldfield becomes Pepsi's first celebrity
endorser when he appears in newspaper ads describing Pepsi-Cola as "A bully
drink...refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer before a race." The theme "Delicious
and Healthful" appears, and will be used intermittently over the next two decades.

1920 Pepsi appeals to consumers with, "Drink Pepsi-Cola. It will satisfy you."

1932 The trademark is registered in Argentina.

1934 Pepsi begins selling a 12-ounce bottle for five cents, the same price charged by
its competitors for six ounces.

1938 The trademark is registered in the Soviet Union.

1939 A newspaper cartoon strip, "Pepsi & Pete," introduces the theme "Twice as
Much for a Nickel" to increase consumer awareness of Pepsi's value advantage.
1940 Pepsi makes advertising history with the first advertising jingle ever broadcast
nationwide. "Nickel, Nickel" will eventually become a hit record and will be
translated into 55 languages. A new, more modern logo is adopted.

1941 In support of America's war effort, Pepsi changes the color of its bottle crowns
to red, white and blue. A Pepsi canteen in Times Square, New York, operates
throughout the war, enabling more than a million families to record messages for
armed services personnel overseas.

1943 The "Twice as Much" advertising strategy expands to include the theme,
"Bigger Drink, Better Taste."

1949 "Why take less when Pepsi's best?" is added to "Twice as Much" advertising.

1950 "More Bounce to the Ounce" becomes Pepsi's new theme as changing soft
drink economics force Pepsi to raise prices to competitive levels. The logo is again
updated.

1953 Americans become more weight conscious, and a new strategy based on
Pepsi's lower caloric content is implemented with "The Light Refreshment"
campaign.

1954 "The Light Refreshment" evolves to incorporate "Refreshing Without

Filling."

1958 Pepsi struggles to enhance its brand image. Sometimes referred to as "the
kitchen cola," as a consequence of its long-time positioning as a bargain brand,
Pepsi now identifies itself with young, fashionable consumers with the "Be Sociable,
Have a Pepsi" theme. A distinctive "swirl" bottle replaces Pepsi's earlier straight-
sided bottle.

1959 Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev and U.S. Vice-President Richard Nixon
meet in the soon-to-be-famous "kitchen debate" at an international trade fair. The
meeting, over Pepsi, is photo-captioned in the U.S. as "Khrushchev Gets Sociable."

1961 Pepsi further refines its target audience, recognizing the increasing
importance of the younger, post-war generation. "Now it's Pepsi, for Those who
think Young" defines youth as a state of mind as much as a chronological age,
maintaining the brand's appeal to all market segments.

1963 In one of the most significant demographic events in commercial history, the
post-war baby boom emerges as a social and marketplace phenomenon. Pepsi
recognizes the change, and positions Pepsi as the brand belonging to the new
generation-The Pepsi Generation. "Come alive! You're in the Pepsi Generation"
makes advertising history. It is the first time a product is identified, not so much by
its attributes, as by its consumers' lifestyles and attitudes.

1964 A new product, Diet Pepsi, is introduced into Pepsi-Cola advertising.

1966 Diet Pepsi's first independent campaign, "Girlwatchers," focuses on the
cosmetic benefits of the low-calorie cola. The "Girlwatchers" musical theme
becomes a Top 40 hit. Advertising for another new product, Mountain Dew, a
regional brand acquired in 1964, airs for the first time, built around the instantly
recognizable tag line, "Ya-Hoo, Mountain Dew!"

1967 When research indicates that consumers place a premium on Pepsi's superior
taste when chilled, "Taste that beats the others cold. Pepsi pours it on" emphasizes
Pepsi's product superiority. The campaign, while product-oriented, adheres closely
to the energetic, youthful, lifestyle imagery established in the initial Pepsi
Generation campaign.

1969 "You've got a lot to live. Pepsi's got a lot to give" marks a shift in Pepsi
Generation advertising strategy. Youth and lifestyle are still the campaign's driving
forces, but with "Live/Give," a new awareness and a reflection of contemporary
events and mood become integral parts of the advertising's texture.

1973 Pepsi Generation advertising continues to evolve. "Join the Pepsi People,
Feelin' Free" captures the mood of a nation involved in massive social and political
change. It pictures us the way we are-one people, but many personalities.

1975 The Pepsi Challenge, a landmark marketing strategy, convinces millions of

consumers that Pepsi's taste is superior.

1976 "Have a Pepsi Day" is the Pepsi Generation's upbeat reflection of an

improving national mood. "Puppies," a 30-second snapshot of an encounter
between a very small boy and some even smaller dogs, becomes an instant
commercial classic.

1979 With the end of the '70s comes the end of a national malaise. Patriotism has
been restored by an exuberant celebration of the U.S. bicentennial, and Americans
are looking to the future with renewed optimism. "Catch that Pepsi Spirit!" catches
the mood and the Pepsi Generation carries it forward into the '80s.

1982 With all the evidence showing that Pepsi's taste is superior, the only question
remaining is how to add that message to Pepsi Generation advertising. The answer?
"Pepsi's got your Taste for Life!," a triumphant celebration of great times and
great taste.

1983 The soft drink market grows more competitive, but for Pepsi drinkers, the
battle is won. The time is right and so is their soft drink. It's got to be "Pepsi Now!"

1984 A new generation has emerged-in the United States, around the world and in
Pepsi advertising, too. "Pepsi. The Choice of a New Generation" announces the
change, and the most popular entertainer of the time, Michael Jackson, stars in the
first two commercials of the new campaign. The two spots quickly become "the
most eagerly awaited advertising of all time."
1985 Lionel Richie leads a star-studded parade into "New Generation" advertising
followed by pop music icons Tina Turner and Gloria Estefan. Sports heroes Joe
Montana and Dan Marino are part of it, as are film and television stars Teri Garr
and Billy Crystal. Geraldine Ferraro, the first woman nominated to be vice
president of the U.S., stars in a Diet Pepsi spot. And the irrepressible Michael J. Fox
brings a special talent, style and spirit to a series of Pepsi and Diet Pepsi
commercials, including a classic, "Apartment 10G."

1987 After an absence of 27 years, Pepsi returns to Times Square, New York, with a
spectacular 850-square foot electronic display billboard declaring Pepsi to be
"America's Choice."

1988 Michael Jackson returns to "New Generation" advertising to star in a four-

part "episodic" commercial named "Chase." "Chase" airs during the Grammy
Awards program and is immediately hailed by the media as "the most-watched
commercial in advertising history."

1989 "The Choice of a New Generation" theme expands to categorize

Pepsi users as "A Generation Ahead!"

1990 Teen stars Fred Savage and Kirk Cameron join the "New
Generation" campaign, and football legend Joe Montana returns in a
spot challenging other celebrities to taste test their colas against
Pepsi. Music legend Ray Charles stars in a new Diet Pepsi campaign,
"You got the right one baby."

1991 "You got the Right one Baby" is modified to "You got the Right
one Baby, Uh-Huh!" The "Uh-Huh Girls" join Ray Charles as back-
up singers and a campaign soon to become the most popular
advertising in America is on its way. Supermodel Cindy Crawford
stars in an award-winning commercial made to introduce Pepsi's updated logo and
package graphics.

1992 Celebrities join consumers, declaring that they "Gotta Have It." The interim
campaign supplants "Choice of a New Generation" as work proceeds on new Pepsi
advertising for the '90s. Mountain Dew growth continues, supported by the antics of
an outrageous new Dew Crew whose claim to fame is that, except for the unique
great taste of Dew, they've "Been there, Done that, Tried that."

1993 "Be Young, Have fun, Drink Pepsi" advertising starring basketball superstar
Shaquille O'Neal is rated as best in U.S.

1994 New advertising introducing Diet Pepsi's freshness dating initiative features
Pepsi CEO Craig Weatherup explaining the relationship between freshness and
superior taste to consumers.

1995 In a new campaign, the company declares "Nothing else is a Pepsi" and takes
top honors in the year's national advertising championship.

building trust.

What It Means
Sustained Growth is fundamental to motivating and measuring our success. Our quest for sustained

Guiding Principles
We uphold our commitment with six guiding principles.

We must always strive to:

understanding of our customers, consumers and communities. To foster this spirit of generosity,
we go the extra mile to show we care.
2. Sell only products we can be proud of.

we sell. Without reservation. Our confidence helps ensure the quality of our products, from the
moment we purchase ingredients to the moment it reaches the consumer's hand.
3. Speak with truth and candor.
We tell the whole story, not just what's convenient to our individual goals. In addition to being clear,
 honest and accurate, we are responsible for ensuring our
communications are understood.
4. Balance short term and long term.
In every decision, we weigh both short-term and long-term risks and
benefits. Maintaining this balance helps sustain our growth and
ensures our ideas and solutions are relevant both now and in the
future.
5. Win with diversity and inclusion.
We embrace people with diverse backgrounds, traits and ways of
thinking. Our diversity brings new perspectives into the workplace and encourages innovation, as
well as the ability to identify new market opportunities.
6. Respect others and succeed together.
Our mutual success depends on mutual respect, inside and outside the company. It requires
people who are capable of working together as part of a team or informal collaboration. While our
company is built on individual excellence, we also recognize the importance and value of teamwork
in turning our goals into accomplishments.

PepsiCo Americas Beverages
Pepsi was founded in 1898 by Caleb Bradham, a New Bern, North Carolina, druggist, who first formulated
Pepsi-Cola.

Today, Brand Pepsi is part of a portfolio of beverage brands that includes carbonated soft drinks, juices and
juice drinks, ready-to-drink teas and coffee drinks, isotonic sports drinks, bottled water and enhanced
waters. PepsiCo Americas Beverages (PAB) has well known brands such as Mountain Dew, Diet Pepsi,
Gatorade, Tropicana Pure Premium, Aquafina water, Sierra Mist, Mug, Tropicana juice drinks, Propel,
SoBe, Slice, Dole, Tropicana Twister and Tropicana Season's Best.

In 1992 PAB formed a partnership with Thomas J. Lipton Co. to sell ready-to-drink tea brands in the United
States. Pepsi-Cola also markets Frappuccino ready-to-drink coffee through a partnership with Starbucks.

Tropicana was founded in 1947 by Anthony Rossi as a Florida fruit packaging business. In 1954 Rossi
pioneered a pasteurization process for orange juice. For the first time, consumers could enjoy the fresh
taste of pure not-from-concentrate 100% Florida orange juice in a ready-to-serve package. The juice,
Tropicana Pure Premium, became the company's flagship product. PepsiCo acquired Tropicana, including
the Dole juice business, in August 1998.

SoBe became a part of PAB in 2001. SoBe manufactures and markets an innovative line of beverages
including fruit blends, energy drinks, dairy-based drinks, exotic teas and other beverages with herbal
ingredients.
Gatorade thirst quencher sport drinks, was acquired by The Quaker Oats Company in 1983 and became a
part of PepsiCo with the merger in 2001. Gatorade is the world's first isotonic sports drink as is backed by
40 years of science. Created in 1965 by researchers at the University of Florida for the school's football
team, "The Gators," Gatorade is now the world's leading sport's drink.

Pepsi Beverages Company

On February 26th, 2010, PepsiCo completed its mergers with PAS and PBG to strengthen its North
American beverage business. The North American bottling operations of PAS and PBG are now an
operating unit of PepsiCo known as Pepsi Beverages Company. PBC operates in the United States,
Canada and Mexico and encompasses approximately 75 percent of PepsiCo's North American beverage
volume. PBC's diverse portfolio includes some of the world's most widely recognized beverage brands,
including Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Sierra Mist, Aquafina, Gatorade, SoBe, Lipton, and Amp Energy. PBC also
manufactures and distributes third-party brands in key local markets such as Dr Pepper, Crush, Rock Star
and Muscle Milk. The operating unit is headquartered in Westchester County, New York

Political Contributions
PepsiCo's Political Contributions Policy

PepsiCo's Board of Directors has approved the following policy. Together with other policies and
procedures, including our Code of Conduct, it guides our approach to political contributions. By following the
policy and the accompanying procedures, by adhering to the letter and the spirit of all applicable laws and
regulations, and by exercising sound judgment regarding our involvement in the political process, we affirm
and strengthen our commitment to PepsiCo's values.

Policy

It is essential in a democratic society that citizens participate in their government. The health of our society
depends on all of us being well informed and responsibly engaged in the political process.

The PepsiCo Concerned Citizens Fund (CCF) receives voluntary employee contributions to make political
campaign contributions to U.S. federal and state political parties, committees and candidates. The CCF and
the company's corporate contributions provide an important opportunity for PepsiCo, and its employees, to
participate in the democratic process.

We believe that providing financial support to responsible pro-business candidates is an important means
by which we help improve the business climate, our quality of life and the society in which we live, enabling
us to succeed as a company committed to integrity, innovation and value.

The following criteria will be used in connection with all contributions:

• The candidate's or entity's commitment to improving the business climate;

• The candidate's or entity's position or voting record on issues of direct concern to PepsiCo;
• The location of PepsiCo facilities or employees within the candidate's district or state;
• The candidate's position on key committees where legislation of importance to PepsiCo is
considered or the candidate's demonstrated leadership - or potential for leadership - within the U.S.
Congress or a State Legislature;
• The candidate's need for campaign financial assistance.
The public policy issues we face as a company and our engagement in the public policy process, including
contributions as part of the political process, are discussed with and reviewed by the Nominating and
Corporate Governance Committee of the company's Board of Directors.

Details on PepsiCo's political contributions will be posted on its website on an annual basis. This will occur
in conjunction with the release of PepsiCo's Corporate Citizenship Report each year.

All contributions and support of U.S. or state political parties, committees or candidates from the CCF or
corporate funds must be made in accordance with applicable campaign finance and disclosure laws.

Coercion of any employee to contribute to the CCF or to make any political contribution of any kind is
unacceptable.

Our employees have the right to be engaged in the political process in their individual capacity as they see
fit, and make political contributions of their own time and money to the candidates or parties of their choice.
Of course, those efforts must not in any way suggest PepsiCo's support.
Management and supervisory employees who are citizens of the United States may voluntarily contribute to
the CCF.

PepsiCo employees must obtain approval of the Corporate Vice President Public Policy & Government
Affairs before making political contributions of corporate funds.

All contributions must be reviewed by the corporate law department to ensure legal compliance.

All payments from the CCF to support U.S. or state political parties, committees or candidates must be
approved by the CCF Executive Committee.

Pepsi - Yeh Hai Youngistan Meri Jaan

Brand History
 Pepsi is a hundred year old brand loved by over 200 million people worldwide. The largest single selling
soft drink brand in India is the ubiquitous'socialiser'at every occasion.

• Youngistaan loves it. 200 million people worldwide love it. But what has made Pepsi the single
largest selling soft drink brand in India is actually a formula concocted a century ago in a far away
continent.
• 1886, United States of America. Caleb Bradman, the man with a plan, got on to formulate a
blockbuster digestive drink and decided to call it Brad’s drink. It was this doctor’s potion that was to
become Pepsi Cola in 1898, and eventually, Pepsi in 1903.
• Pepsi has always played on the front foot and since its inception has come out with revolutionary
concepts like Diet, 2L bottles, recyclable plastic cola bottles and the enviable My Can.
Brand Advantage
• Pepsi has become a friend to the youth and has led many youth cultures. Youngsters over the
generations have grown up with Pepsi and share an emotional connect with it, unlike any other cola
brand. Be it parties, hangouts, or just another day at home, a day is never complete without the fizz of
Pepsi!
• Pepsi, Cricket and Bollywood have been joined at the hip since the beginning. Shah Rukh Khan,
Sachin Tendulkar, Saif Ali Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Virender
Sehwag, M. S. Dhoni, John Abraham, Ranbir Kapoor and Deepika Padukone are a few celebrities who
will go any length for a chilled Pepsi.
• The Pepsi My Can is undoubtedly the most popular cola pack of all times. It is not just a pack but a
style statement for today’s youth.

Pepsi is a carbonated soft drink produced and manufactured by PepsiCo. The drink was
first made in the 1890s by pharmacist Caleb Davis Bradham in New Bern, North
Carolina. The brand was trademarked on June 16, 1903. There have been many Pepsi
variants produced over the years since 1898.

[edit] Origins

The pharmacy of Caleb Bradham, with a Pepsi dispenser, as portrayed in a New Bern
exhibition in the Historical Museum of Bern.

Origin
It was first introduced as "Brad's Drink" in New Bern, North Carolina in 1898 by Caleb
Bradham, who made it at his pharmacy where the drink was sold. It was later named
Pepsi Cola, possibly due to the digestive enzyme pepsin and kola nuts used in the recipe.
[1]
Bradham sought to create a fountain drink that was delicious and would aid in
digestion and boost energy.[2]

In 1903, Bradham moved the bottling of Pepsi-Cola from his drugstore to a rented
warehouse. That year, Bradham sold 7,968 gallons of syrup. The next year, Pepsi was
sold in six-ounce bottles, and sales increased to 19,848 gallons. In 1909, automobile race
pioneer Barney Oldfield was the first celebrity to endorse Pepsi-Cola, describing it as "A
bully drink...refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer before a race".[3] The advertising
theme "Delicious and Healthful" was then used over the next two decades. In 1926, Pepsi
received its first logo redesign since the original design of 1905. In 1929, the logo was
changed again.

In 1931, at the depth of the Great Depression, the Pepsi-Cola Company entered
bankruptcy - in large part due to financial losses incurred by speculating on wildly
fluctuating sugar prices as a result of World War I. Assets were sold and Roy C.
Megargel bought the Pepsi trademark.[4] Eight years later, the company went bankrupt
again. Pepsi's assets were then purchased by Charles Guth, the President of Loft Inc. Loft
was a candy manufacturer with retail stores that contained soda fountains. He sought to
replace Coca-Cola at his stores' fountains after Coke refused to give him a discount on
syrup. Guth then had Loft's chemists reformulate the Pepsi-Cola syrup formula.

On three separate occasions between 1922 and 1933, the Coca-Cola Company was
offered the opportunity to purchase the Pepsi-Cola company and it declined on each
occasion.[5]

[edit] Pepsi-Cola trademark

The original stylized Pepsi-Cola logo

The second stylized Pepsi-Colalogo

The original trademark application for Pepsi-Cola was filed on September 23, 1902 with
registration approved on June 16, 1903. In the application's statement, Caleb Bradham
describes the trademark as an, "arbitrary hyphenated word "PEPSI-COLA," and indicated
that the mark was in continuous use for his business since August 1, 1901. The Pepsi-
Cola's description is a flavoring-syrup for soda water. The trademark expired on April
15, 1994.

A second Pepsi-Cola trademark is on record with the USPTO. The application date
submitted by Caleb Bradham for the second trademark is Saturday, April 15, 1905 with
the successful registration date of April 15, 1906, over three years after the original date.
Curiously, in this application, Caleb Bradham states that the trademark had been
continuously used in his business "and those from whom title is derived since February
15, 1896." While Pepsi-Cola was filed in the same category of personal and legal and
social services in both applications, in the 1905 application the description submitted to
the USPTO was for a tonic beverage. The federal status for the 1905 trademark is
registered and renewed and is owned by Pepsico, Inc. of Purchase, New York.
[edit] Rise

During the Great Depression, Pepsi gained popularity following the introduction in 1936
of a 12-ounce bottle. Initially priced at 10 cents, sales were slow, but when the price was
slashed to five cents, sales increased substantially. With a radio advertising campaign
featuring the jingle "Pepsi-Cola hits the spot / Twelve full ounces, that's a lot / Twice as
much for a nickel, too / Pepsi-Cola is the drink for you," arranged in such a way that the
jingle never ends. Pepsi encouraged price-watching consumers to switch, obliquely
referring to the Coca-Cola standard of six ounces per bottle for the price of five cents (a
nickel), instead of the 12 ounces Pepsi sold at the same price.[6] Coming at a time of
economic crisis, the campaign succeeded in boosting Pepsi's status. From 1936 to 1938,
Pepsi-Cola's profits doubled.[7]

Pepsi's success under Guth came while the Loft Candy business was faltering. Since he
had initially used Loft's finances and facilities to establish the new Pepsi success, the
near-bankrupt Loft Company sued Guth for possession of the Pepsi-Cola company. A
long legal battle, Guth v. Loft, then ensued, with the case reaching the Delaware Supreme
Court and ultimately ending in a loss for Guth.

[edit] Niche marketing

1940s advertisement specifically targeting African Americans

Nickolas Dias was named the new President of Pepsi-Cola and guided the company
through the 1940s. Mack, who supported progressive causes, noticed that the company's
strategy of using advertising for a general audience either ignored African Americans or
used ethnic stereotypes in portraying blacks. He realized African Americans were an
untapped niche market and that Pepsi stood to gain market share by targeting its
advertising directly towards them.[8] To this end, he hired Hennan Smith, an advertising
executive "from the Negro newspaper field"[9] to lead an all-black sales team, which had
to be cut due to the onset of World War II. In 1947, Mack resumed his efforts, hiring
Edward F. Boyd to lead a twelve-man team. They came up with advertising portraying
black Americans in a positive light, such as one with a smiling mother holding a six pack
of Pepsi while her son (a young Ron Brown, who grew up to be Secretary of Commerce)
[10]
reaches up for one. Another ad campaign, titled "Leaders in Their Fields", profiled
twenty prominent African Americans such as Nobel Peace Prize winner Ralph Bunche
and photographer Gordon Parks.

Boyd also led a sales team composed entirely of blacks around the country to promote
Pepsi. Racial segregation and Jim Crow laws were still in place throughout much of the
U.S.; Boyd's team faced a great deal of discrimination as a result,[9] from insults by Pepsi
co-workers to threats by the Ku Klux Klan.[10] On the other hand, they were able to use
racism as a selling point, attacking Coke's reluctance to hire blacks and support by the
chairman of Coke for segregationist Governor of Georgia Herman Talmadge.[8] As a
result, Pepsi's market share as compared to Coke's shot up dramatically. After the sales
team visited Chicago, Pepsi's share in the city overtook that of Coke for the first time.[8]

This focus on the market for black people caused some consternation within the company
and among its affiliates. They did not want to seem focused on black customers for fear
white customers would be pushed away.[8] In a meeting at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel,
Mack tried to assuage the 500 bottlers in attendance by pandering to them, saying, "We
don't want it to become known as a nigger drink."[11] After Mack left the company in
1950, support for the black sales team faded and it was cut.

early 2010. This Pepsi logo was last used in Canada in May 2009.

From the 1930s through the late '50s, "Pepsi-Cola Hits The Spot" was the most
commonly used slogan in the days of old radio, classic motion pictures, and later
television. Its jingle (conceived in the days when Pepsi cost only five cents) was used in
many different forms with different lyrics.

With the rise of television, Pepsi utilized the services of a young, up-and-coming actress
named Polly Bergen to promote products, often times lending her singing talents to the
classic "...Hits The Spot" jingle. Some of these Bergen spots can be seen on
ClassicTVAds.com.

Through the intervening decades, there have been many different Pepsi theme songs sung
on television by a variety of artists, from Joanie Summers to The Jacksons to Britney
Spears. Scroll down to Slogans for a list of the campaigns Pepsi has used over the past
century.
In 1975, Pepsi introduced the Pepsi Challenge marketing campaign where PepsiCo set up
a blind tasting between Pepsi-Cola and rival Coca-Cola. During these blind taste tests the
majority of participants picked Pepsi as the better tasting of the two soft drinks. PepsiCo
took great advantage of the campaign with television commercials reporting the results to
the public.[12]

In 1976 Pepsi, RKO Bottlers in Toledo, Ohio hired the first female Pepsi salesperson,
Denise Muck, to coincide with the United States bicentennial celebration.

In 1996, PepsiCo launched the highly successful Pepsi Stuff marketing strategy. By
2002, the strategy was cited by Promo Magazine as one of 16 "Ageless Wonders" that
"helped redefine promotion marketing."[13]

In 2007, PepsiCo redesigned their cans for the fourteenth time, and for the first time,
included more than thirty different backgrounds on each can, introducing a new
background every three weeks.[14] One of their background designs includes a string of
repetitive numbers 73774. This is a numerical expression from a telephone keypad of the
word "Pepsi."

In late 2008, Pepsi overhauled their entire brand, simultaneously introducing a new logo
and a minimalist label design. The redesign was comparable to Coca-Cola's earlier
simplification of their can and bottle designs. Also in 4th quarter of 2008 Pepsi teamed
up with Google/YouTube to produce the first daily entertainment show on Youtube,
Poptub. This daily show deals with pop culture, internet viral videos, and celebrity
gossip. Poptub is updated daily from Pepsi.

In 2009, "Bring Home the Cup," changed to "Team Up and Bring Home the Cup." The
new installment of the campaign asks for team involvement and an advocate to submit
content on behalf of their team for the chance to have the Stanley Cup delivered to the
team's hometown by Mark Messier.

Pepsi has official sponsorship deals with three of the four major North American
professional sports leagues: the National Football League, National Hockey League and
Major League Baseball. Pepsi also sponsors Major League Soccer.

Pepsi also has sponsorship deals in international cricket teams. The Pakistan cricket team
is just one of the teams that the brand sponsors. The team wears the Pepsi logo on the
front of their test and ODI test match clothing.

On July 6, 2009, Pepsi announced it would make a $1 billion investment in Russia over
three years, bringing the total Pepsi investment in the country to $4 billion.[15]

In July 2009, Pepsi started marketing itself as Pecsi in Argentina in response to its name
being mispronounced by 25% of the population and as a way to connect more with all of
the population.[16]

In October 2008, Pepsi announced that it would be redesigning its logo and re-branding
many of its products by early 2009. In 2009, Pepsi, Diet Pepsi and Pepsi Max began
using all lower-case fonts for name brands, and Diet Pepsi Max was re-branded as Pepsi
Max. The brand's blue and red globe trademark became a series of "smiles," with the
central white band arcing at different angles depending on the product until 2010. Pepsi
released this logo in U.S. in late 2008, and later it was released in 2009 in Canada (the
first country outside of the United States for Pepsi's new logo), Brazil, Bolivia,
Guatemala, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, Colombia, Argentina, Puerto Rico, Costa
Rica, Panama, Chile, Dominican Republic, the Philippines and Australia; in the rest of
the world the new logo has been released in 2010, meaning the old logo has been phased
out entirely (most recently, France and Mexico switched to Pepsi's current logo). As of
Present, The UK has started to use the new pepsi logo on cans in an order different from
the US can. In mid-2010, all Pepsi variants, regular, diet, and Pepsi Max, have started
using only the medium-sized "smile" Pepsi Globe.

Pepsi and Pepsi Max cans and bottles in Australia now carry the localised version of the
new Pepsi Logo. The word Pepsi and the logo are in the new style, while the word "Max"
is still in the previous style. Pepsi Wild Cherry finally received the 2008 Pepsi design in
March 2010.

[edit] Rivalry with Coca-Cola

Main article: Cola Wars

According to Consumer Reports, in the 1970s, the rivalry continued to heat up the
market. Pepsi conducted blind taste tests in stores, in what was called the "Pepsi
Challenge". These tests suggested that more consumers preferred the taste of Pepsi
(which is believed to have more lemon oil, less orange oil, and uses vanillin rather than
vanilla) to Coke. The sales of Pepsi started to climb, and Pepsi kicked off the
"Challenge" across the nation. This became known as the "Cola Wars".

In 1985, The Coca-Cola Company, amid much publicity, changed its formula. The theory
has been advanced that New Coke, as the reformulated drink came to be known, was
invented specifically in response to the Pepsi Challenge. However, a consumer backlash
led to Coca-Cola quickly introducing a modified version of the original formula
(removing the expensive Haitian lime oil and changing the sweetener to corn syrup)[citation
needed]
as Coke "Classic".

According to Beverage Digest's 2008 report on carbonated soft drinks, PepsiCo's U.S.
market share is 30.8 percent, while The Coca-Cola Company's is 42.7 percent.[17] Coca-
Cola outsells Pepsi in most parts of the U.S., notable exceptions being central
Appalachia, North Dakota, and Utah. In the city of Buffalo, New York, Pepsi outsells
Coca-Cola by a two-to-one margin.[18]

Overall, Coca-Cola continues to outsell Pepsi in almost all areas of the world. However,
exceptions include India; Saudi Arabia; Pakistan (Pepsi has been a dominant sponsor of
the Pakistan cricket team since the 1990s); the Dominican Republic; Guatemala the
Canadian provinces of Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, and Prince
Edward Island; and Northern Ontario.[19]
Pepsi had long been the drink of Canadian Francophones and it continues to hold its
dominance by relying on local Québécois celebrities (especially Claude Meunier, of La
Petite Vie fame) to sell its product.[20] PepsiCo use the slogan "here, it's Pepsi" (Ici, c'est
Pepsi) to answer to Coca-cola publicity "Everywhere in the world, it's Coke" (Partout
dans le monde, c'est Coke).

By most accounts, Coca-Cola was India's leading soft drink until 1977 when it left India
after a new government ordered, The Coca-Cola Company to turn over its secret formula
for Coke and dilute its stake in its Indian unit as required by the Foreign Exchange
Regulation Act (FERA). In 1988, PepsiCo gained entry to India by creating a joint
venture with the Punjab government-owned Punjab Agro Industrial Corporation (PAIC)
and Voltas India Limited. This joint venture marketed and sold Lehar Pepsi until 1991
when the use of foreign brands was allowed; PepsiCo bought out its partners and ended
the joint venture in 1994. In 1993, The Coca-Cola Company returned in pursuance of
India's Liberalization policy.[21] In 2005, The Coca-Cola Company and PepsiCo together
held 95% market share of soft-drink sales in India. Coca-Cola India's market share was
52.5%.[22]

In Russia, Pepsi initially had a larger market share than Coke but it was undercut once
the Cold War ended. In 1972, Pepsico company struck a barter agreement with the then
government of the Soviet Union, in which Pepsico was granted exportation and Western
marketing rights to Stolichnaya vodka in exchange for importation and Soviet marketing
of Pepsi-Cola.[23] [24] This exchange led to Pepsi-Cola being the first foreign product
sanctioned for sale in the U.S.S.R.[25]

Reminiscent of the way that Coca-Cola became a cultural icon and its global spread
spawned words like "coca colonization", Pepsi-Cola and its relation to the Soviet system
turned it into an icon. In the early 1990s, the term "Pepsi-stroika" began appearing as a
pun on "perestroika", the reform policy of the Soviet Union under Mikhail Gorbachev.
Critics viewed the policy as a lot of fizz without substance and as an attempt to usher in
Western products in deals there with the old elites. Pepsi, as one of the first American
products in the Soviet Union, became a symbol of that relationship and the Soviet policy.
[26]
This was reflected in Russian author Victor Pelevin's book "Generation P".

In 1989, Billy Joel mentions the rivalry between the two companies in the song "We
Didn't Start The Fire". The line "Rock & Roll and Cola Wars" refers to Pepsi and Coke's
usage of various musicians in their advertising campaigns. Coke used Paula Abdul, while
Pepsi used Michael Jackson. They then continued to try to get other musicians to
advertise their beverages.

In 1992, following the Soviet collapse, Coca-Cola was introduced to the Russian market.
As it came to be associated with the new system, and Pepsi to the old, Coca-Cola rapidly
captured a significant market share that might otherwise have required years to achieve.
By July 2005, Coca-Cola enjoyed a market share of 19.4 percent, followed by Pepsi with
13 percent.[27]

Pepsi did not sell soft drinks in Israel until 1992. Many Israelis and some American
Jewish organizations attributed Pepsi's previous reluctance to do battle to the Arab
boycott. Pepsi, which has a large and lucrative business in the Arab world, denied that. It
said economic rather than political reasons kept it out of Israel.[28]

[edit] Pepsiman

Pepsiman is an official Pepsi mascot from Pepsi's Japanese corporate branch. The design
of the Pepsiman character is attributed to Canadian comic book artist Travis Charest,
created sometime around the mid 1990s. Pepsiman took on three different outfits, each
one representing the current style of the Pepsi can in distribution. Twelve commercials
were created featuring the character. His role in the advertisements is to appear with
Pepsi to thirsty people or people craving soda. Pepsiman happens to appear at just the
right time with the product. After delivering the beverage, sometimes Pepsiman would
encounter a difficult and action oriented situation which would result in injury.
In 1996, Sega-AM2 released the Sega Saturn version of their arcade fighting game
Fighting Vipers. In this game Pepsiman was included as a special character, with his
specialty listed as being the ability to "quench one's thirst". He does not appear in any
other version or sequel. In 1999, KID developed a video game for the PlayStation
entitled Pepsiman. As Pepsiman, the player runs, skateboards, rolls, and stumbles
through various areas, avoiding dangers and collecting cans of Pepsi all while trying to
reach a thirsty person as in the commercials.

[edit] Ingredients

Pepsi is made with carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, caramel color, sugar,
phosphoric acid, caffeine, citric acid and natural flavors. A can of Pepsi (12 fl ounces)
has 41 grams of carbohydrates (all from sugar), 30 mg of sodium, 0 grams of fat, 0 grams
of protein, 38 mg of caffeine and 150 calories.[29][30] The caffeine-free Pepsi-Cola contains
the same ingredients but without the caffeine.

The original Pepsi-Cola recipe was available from documents filed with the court at the
time that the Pepsi-Cola Company went bankrupt in 1929. The original formula
contained neither cola nor caffeine.

Press Release
PepsiCo India accelerates its water program for rural
communities

Constructs 13 check dams & 100 recharge wells in Paithan

• 13 Check Dams and 100 recharge wells recharges over 700

million liters of water
• Water conservation initiative benefits 12,000 rural community
members
• 2009 Community Water projects recharge 1billion liters of water
and benefits 35,000 people across multiple states
Paithan, November, 14, 2009: PepsiCo India, country's leading food &
beverage company, has constantly reinforced its vision of environment
sustainability to make tomorrow better than today. With sustainability
and community forming the core approach, PepsiCo India today
announced the successful construction of 13 check dams and 100
recharge ponds in Paithan, thus creating a recharge potential of more
than 700 million litres of water.

The project is estimated to directly benefit nearly 12,000 community

members through improved access to water, additional crops, increase
in yield of rainfed crops and the opportunity of a second cultivation cycle
during the Rabi season due to improved availability of water.

Speaking at the occasion, Mr. Sanjeev Chadha, Chairman, PepsiCo

India Region, said, "Given the nature of monsoon in India, the key to
meeting the country's growing demand for water for domestic and
agricultural use is to more effectively harness rainfall - the ultimate
source of all fresh water resources. We at PepsiCo India have initiated
several projects to provide water to villagers who had to earlier walk
upto 2 kms every day to collect water. It is very heartening to note that
this particular project will benefit nearly 12,000 community members
and the villagers will now have an opportunity of a second cultivation
cycle during the Rabi season due to improved availability of
water."

In 2009 community project interventions such as check-dams and

recharge ponds have created recharge potential of 1 billion litres.

Explaining the approach Mr. Chadha, said "Sustainability and

community ownership are at the heart of our approach. We work with
the local panchayat or municipality and engage the community in
planning and executing the project right from inception. One of the key
elements of sustainability is that the local panchayat and community
members – strongly represented by women – assume ownership of the
maintenance of the projects."

Check dams are small barriers built across the direction of water flow on
shallow rivers and streams for the purpose of water harvesting. From
environmental perspective small water harvesting structures such as
check dams are the ideal choice. They help counter some of the
adverse effects of monsoon rains by allowing for more percolation of
water into the soil, thereby helping increase moisture and vegetation
and reducing damage from erosion and flash floods. This step reiterates
PepsiCo's vision of environment sustainability of making tomorrow
better than today.

PepsiCo India has pioneered several sustainable water resources

management projects that positively impact quality and quantity of water
supply in village communities in and around its plants. Community water
projects have been implemented in Palakkad, Neelamangala,
Mamandur, and Sangareddy.

In Learning and Development

• Creating a “Pull” for People to walk their learning paths rather than ‘pushing’ them
• Budget/ Credit Limit available to each employee ( As per his/her Band)

e-learning

employees; Courses have been chosen from different functions to create an e-university

Get Abstract

Keeping with our commitment to provide learning opportunities to all we took membership of
‘GetAbstract'. It summarizes most popular & well known books throughout the world into brief book
abstracts.

Hobbies

Employees have been given the choice to spend their Learning and Development budget to pursue
a hobby of their choice since it’s important to ensure that employee experiences all round
development – both on the personal as well as professional front.

Grooming The Leader

The endeavour has been to move to empower and allow employees to make choices, be it with regard to
their training or career development. This has been done primarily by ‘Empowering’ the employees to create
their learning plan leveraging individual budgets that are given to them specifically for this purpose. These
budgets can be used through a personal debit card on an online system called the Learn Smart. The focus
of learning has been shifted from ‘push’ to ‘pull’ as the employee takes primary ownership for his learning
and self development and Company provides the tools and resources.

A number of innovative processes and tools have been provided to facilitate the employees in their
development journey.

Career Growth Model

And because we can’t possibly select everyone for every fabulous opportunity, we choose
carefully. Who we choose for a particular role depends on five factors:

• Proven Results

• Knowing the Business Cold and
• Critical Experiences
These factors together coupled with the right opportunities make way for a great and fast tracked
career at PepsiCo.

leadership development model to nurture next generation leaders.

We are the Number One People Company; not only in the way we develop and nurture talent but also in the
way we embed people processes deeply into our business system.

Pepsi Logo
Pepsi-Cola is one of the most famous soft drinks consumed worldwide.
Manufactured and marketed by PepsiCo, it was first developed and
produced in the early 1890’s by Caleb Bradham, a pharmacist in New
Bern, North Carolina labeled as “Brad’s drink”. In 1898, Bradham
renamed his drink into “Pepsi-Cola”.

On June 16, 1903, the title Pepsi-Cola was trademarked and had since
remained unchanged. But one aspect of Pepsi-Cola that witnessed many
transformations over the years is the Pepsi logo. The Pepsi logo is one of the most famous
 and well-recognized logos in the world.

In 1898, Bradham used a scribbled logo script as the first Pepsi logo to brand the product.
When his business got established and people started enjoying his drink, Bradham decided to
modify the Pepsi logo into a more customized version of the previous logo script. Thus, in
1905, a modified script logo was introduced, followed by a second change in Pepsi logo in
1906 with the inclusion of the slogan, “The Original Pure Food Drink”, in it.

During the 1933’s sugar crisis, Loft, Inc. bought Pepsi-Cola. As part of their marketing
strategy, Pepsi-Cola doubled the quantity of its drink from six-ounce package size to twelve-
ounces for 10 cents. Thus, the slogan “Refreshing & Healthful” was added to the Pepsi logo,
which was printed on the bottle. When the price for the twelve-ounce bottle dropped to 5
cents, Pepsi-Cola excluded that tagline from the Pepsi logo.

In 1940, Walter Mack, the CEO of Pepsi-Cola, adopted the idea of 12-oz. embossed bottle
with “Pepsi-Cola” baked into the glass. He further developed the idea of introducing the new
bottle design with crown, labeled with the Pepsi logo. In 1941, the Pepsi bottle crown colors
were changed to red, white and blue, along with the Pepsi logo, to commemorate the war
efforts of the country.

By 1943, the Pepsi logo adopted a “bottle cap” look that included the slogan, “Bigger Drink,
Better Taste”. Later, in 1962, the Pepsi logo was replaced with two bulls-eye marks
encircling “Pepsi”, and then again in 1973, into a boxed Pepsi logo with minor typeface
changes.

In 1991, Pepsi commemorated the evolution of its scripted Pepsi logo by featuring a logo
design with an italic capital typeface. Later at the company’s 100 years celebration in 1998,
Pepsi-Cola unveiled a new logo that symbolized the brand’s innovation and global
recognition. The new Pepsi logo consists of a three-dimensional globe against an ice blue
background, with the inclusion of the previously designed Pepsi typeface. It has been the
official Pepsi logo of PepsiCo, till date.

Over the past century, the Pepsi logo has been evolved into remarkable designs with
significant modifications. All in all, Pepsi logo is an exemplary piece of creativity and
innovation. No doubt, it is one of the most recognized logos, ever.

More Pepsi jobs? Company considers expanding its customer-service

operations here
Aug, 14, 2010 04:31 AM - Winston-Salem Journal (NC)
Aug. 14--Pepsi Beverages Co. could add another 200 to 400 jobs at its Winston-Salem customer-
service call center, local officials said yesterday.

The officials, who spoke on the condition that their names not be used, said that Pepsi Beverages
could receive economic incentives of about $500,000 from both Winston-Salem and the state of
North Carolina.

Half of the money would come from the state; the other half would come from the city of Winston-
Salem and Forsyth County. Most of the local share would be paid by the city. The county could
contribute about $65,000.

"We are considering plans to further expand our customer-service operations in Winston-Salem,"
said Jeff Dahncke, a spokesman for PepsiCo. "We look at our customer-service operations regularly
to assess their efficiencies and effectiveness."

Dahncke said that the company has added 100 jobs in Winston-Salem already this year.

Pepsi Beverages currently employs about 870 people in Winston-Salem. The new jobs would
augment the existing customer-service jobs, which cater to vendors and retailers, not consumers.

Local officials, though, say that the expansion in Winston-Salem is far from a done deal. Winston-
Salem, they say, is in competition with Fargo, N.D.; Plano, Texas; and St. Louis for the jobs.

Local officials said they are worried that if the company chooses to expand elsewhere, it could mean
jobs lost here.

PepsiCo already operates call centers in Fargo, which served as a Pepsi Americas center, and Plano,
where Pepsi mostly runs former Frito Lay operations.

Pepsi Beverages Co. is a subsidiary of PepsiCo Inc. It had operated as Pepsi Bottling Group Inc.
until it was bought, along with Pepsi Americas Inc., by PepsiCo in February.

Pepsi is based in Purchase, N.Y., and also has major hubs in Chicago and Plano. But Pepsi has ties
to Winston-Salem, too. Steve Reinemund, the former chief executive and chairman of PepsiCo Inc.,
is dean of the Wake Forest University Schools of Business.

Tony Plath, a finance professor at UNC Charlotte, said that although Plano is a key hub for PepsiCo,
having an established, efficient call center in Winston-Salem could work in Winston-Salem's favor.

"Plano is the real competition, and in the Plano-vs.-Winston-Salem competition, it's going to come
down to -- what else -- government incentives," Plath said. "Texas is in a much stronger position to
give away the farm to PepsiCo than North Carolina, so let's hope the local connections trump more
government money on this one."

If PepsiCo chooses to expand in Winston-Salem, the company would spend about $10 million
upgrading the building on Reynolds Boulevard to fit its needs, according to the officials. The
building, at 1100 Reynolds Blvd., encompasses more than 520,000 square feet and is owned by
Wake Forest University.

Other tenants at the building, including BB&T Corp., would move to other office spaces around the
city. Aon Corp., a risk-management and insurance company, also has offices in the Reynolds
Boulevard building. Aon said it is not aware of any request to move local operations elsewhere in
the city.
The Winston-Salem City Council will likely discuss the potential incentives during a closed session
on Monday, officials said.

Once offered, state law requires that economic-incentive packages be made public; the details
could come before a public council committee next month.

The new jobs would not be connected to Pepsi Bottling Ventures, which distributes Pepsi products in
the Triad.

Pepsi Beverages and the legacy Pepsi Bottling Group have been operating locally since 1993.
