Pepsico Analysis 1 Running head: PEPSICO ANALYSIS 1 PepsiCo Analysis Lynn University PEPSICO ANALYSIS 2 PepsiCo Analysis Short description of the company background. Pepsi-Cola was founded in the late 1890s by Caleb Bradham, and Frito-Company was created in 1932 by Elmer Doolin. In 1961, Frito Company merged with Lay Company. Pepsi was established in 1965 when Frito-Lays and Pepsi-Cola merged (PepsiCo. 2018). In 1964 Diet Pepsi was created and in 1974 Pepsi was the first American product to be sold in the Soviet Union (PepsiCo. 2018). In 1985 Pepsi was available in over one-hundred and fifty countries and had become the largest company in the soft beverage industry (PepsiCo. 2018). In the early nineties, Pepsi partners with Starbucks and Unilever to develop teas and coffee drinks. In the early two- thousands, South Beach Beverage Co. is acquired by Pepsi, and Sierra Mist is launched (PepsiCo. 2018). Pepsi becomes one of the first companies to incorporate Corporate Social Responsibility by introducing an initiative of independence between society and large corporations (PepsiCo. 2018). A performance with purpose focuses on delivering long-term growth while helping the environment and society. This program saved over six-hundred million people and had helped gear the company towards a healthier product line by cutting down sugars and improving the nutrition. Today, Pepsi is the second largest competitor in the soft drink industry, and their products are sold in over two-hundred countries. Industry analysis on the Strength / Weakness / Opportunities / Threats of the company. Strengths: Massive portfolio: PepsiCo manages a big portfolio of more than a hundred different brands. The company manages the beverage industry food, and snacks. PEPSICO ANALYSIS 3 Brand recognition: PepsiCo is a globally recognized brand in which each brand is worth millions of dollars. Endorsements and sponsorships: PepsiCo are strongly tied to sporting events and music concerts as well as using music idols in their publicity. This helps PepsiCo to attract a younger audience which also is their target market. Weaknesses: Coca Cola rivalry: Coca Cola has always been the main rival for PepsiCo. Because of this reason it is difficult for other companies to enter the market due to not having enough funds and sources as Coca Cola and PepsiCo. The health crowds: PepsiCo faces problems with the health industry due to the products offered with high sugars and calories. Sodas are connected to the growing obesity rates and health problems like diabetes. Also, people are starting to go green and trying to reach a healthier life style. Even dough PepsiCo has incorporated healthier products like diet Pepsi they continue to sell their unhealthy food to the public. In only one industry: Even dough PepsiCo has a hundred brand of products they are all in the food industry. If for example Coca Cola decide to expand their industry in to another markets, PepsiCo will be left behind. Failed products: Even dough it is normal to fail with some products along the way, it is not a good thing when this product harm the brand image. This was the case for PepsiCo with the Crystal Pepsi product. Opportunities: Health product diversity: PepsiCo can start offering healthier products, by doing this they can diversify in the beverage and food industry. PEPSICO ANALYSIS 4 Move into other industries: PepsiCo has everything the need to expand into another industries, and it is a huge opportunity to do it before other brands like Coca cola decide to do it first. Lack of drink flavors: PepsiCo can focus more in adding new flavors to their drinks. Even dough they have worked on flavors like Pepsi Cherry or Pepsi Blue they can add drinks like mango or strawberries. Threats: Nestle as a competitor: Off course every brand main threat is their main competitors, in this case for PepsiCo is Coca Cola and Nestle. In 2017 Nestle they beat PepsiCo’s earnings. Not enough health alternatives: As said before if PepsiCo continue to sell drinks with high content of sugar and calories, they will continue to see a decrease in their sales. Bad economy: Economy will always be a thread to PepsiCo and any industry since when the economy is bad people tend to save their dollars. When this happens most of PepsiCo products fall into the no necessary products list. Strengths Massive portfolio, brand recognition, endorsements and sponsorships. Weaknesses Coca Cola rivalry, the health crowd, one industry, failed products. Opportunities Health product diversity, move into other industries, lack of drink flavors. Threats Nestle as a competitor, a bad economy, not enough health alternatives. Overview of the company financials PepsiCo’s financial statements have shown that it is a large sized company with revenues in the range of $60 and $65 million dollars in the past five years. The company’s profits since 2014 have been fluctuating, but they did very well in the past 2018 when they showed an outstanding increase to $12 million; which was approximately a 19% margin. By the other hand, PepsiCo’s free PEPSICO ANALYSIS 5 cash flow had a less fluctuating performance than profits. FCFs for the past five years were found in the same range between the $6 and $7 million brackets. In the past five years, PepsiCo’s stock prices remained at an increasing trend. Despite a slight decrease in the 2015 closing price, the upcoming years it showed a positive change of $70.85 from 2014 to the end of 2018, meaning that the company’s earnings per share and dividends paid also increased. Thus, it can be seen that the stock of the company performed well in the past 5 years. 2014-12 2015-12 2016-12 2017-12 2018-12 Total assets 70,509.00 69,667.00 74,129.00 79,804.00 77,648.00 Total liabilities 53,071.00 57,744.00 63,034.00 68,915.00 63,130.00 Total equity 17,438.00 11,923.00 11,095.00 10,889.00 14,518.00 Revenue 66,683.00 63,056.00 62,799.00 63,525.00 64,661.00 Net income 6,513.00 5,452.00 6,329.00 4,857.00 12,515.00 Free cash flow 7,647.00 7,822.00 7,364.00 7,025.00 6,133.00 Price 97.03 93.57 118.14 121.72 167.88 Total return -29.87 -9.2 -23.23 28.56 10.65 The company is of large size and is profitable.

However, they increased that performance until it turned positive in 2017 and 2018, so it can be said that it was a regular performance with some fluctuations throughout the years. From owners’ perspective The company’s management has shown a correct utilization of PepsiCo’s assets by keeping the return on these in the positive side. As the last year (2018) showed, it can be PEPSICO ANALYSIS 6 expected a significant increase in such return on assets if they keep performing as well as they have in the previous years. The return on equity for PepsiCo has performed very well. They have shown a significant increase from 2014 until 2018 and have also left room for more growth. This also denotes a well management performance by making efficient practices to save money and repay debts with shareholders. 2014-12 2015-12 2016-12 2017-12 2018-12 Return on 9.24% 7.83% 8.54% 6.09% 16.12% Assets Return on 37.35% 45.73% 57.04% 44.6% 86.2% Equity The company has shown to be profitable in the past 5 years.

    SERGIO ZYMAN I spoke with Sergio on a wide number of topics in December of 2009 relating to Killing Giants, but our conversation has helped me think through a good number of complex issues and has served as the source material for more than a few blog posts. If you’re not familiar, Sergio was Coca Cola’s first Chief Marketing Officer, has done extended stints at rival Pepsi and elsewhere. He’s also a prolific author, having written The End of Marketing As We Know It and others. So without further ado, here’s my slightly abridged interview with Sergio. Sergio Zyman: People love to talk about change but at the end, some people hate change because it's uncomfortable. Most of change happens on the edges. It never really happens on the core. Nobody really goes and attacks an existing brand on the basis of its core value proposition. You should try to go and attack it on the edges because you tend to get less defence from whoever you're attacking. There are ton of stories in that regard. It has to come out with something that was captured in the edge. The Sprite campaign—the "Obey Your Thirst" campaign was—was different, because Sprite was a brand that got created in the 50s only because the company had excess production capacity in the UK and the Brits used to drink lemonade, you know. So somebody came up with the idea that maybe they could launch a lemon- lime drink that had absolutely no proprietary or anything, you know.

  • A Comparative Study of Customer Satisfaction Towards the Soft Drink with Special Reference to Pepsi and Coca-Cola
    A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF CUSTOMER SATISFACTION TOWARDS THE SOFT DRINK WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO PEPSI AND COCA-COLA INTRODUCTION Pepsi was founded in New York in 1965. It is Producing Non-alcoholic beverage and Food processing items. Pepsi is a carbonated beverage that is produced and manufactured by PepsiCo. It is sold in retail stores, restaurants cinemas and from vending machines. The drink was first made in the 1890s by pharmacist Caleb Bradham in New Bern, North Carolina. The brand was trademarked on June 16, 1903. Pepsi arrived on the market in India in 1988.PepsiCo gained entry to India in 1988 by creating a joint venture with the Punjab government-owned Punjab Agro Industrial Corporation (PAIC) and Volta’s 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. Others claim that firstly Pepsi was banned from import in India, in 1970, for having refused to release the list of its ingredients and in 1993, the ban was lifted, with Pepsi arriving on the market shortly afterwards. These controversies are a reminder of "India’s sometimes acrimonious relationship with huge multinational companies." Indeed, some argue that PepsiCo and The Coca- Cola Company have "been major targets in part because they are well-known foreign companies that draw plenty of attention." Ingredients Pepsi-Cola contains basic ingredients found in most other similar drinks including carbonated water, high fructose corn syrup, sugar, colorings, phosphoric acid, caffeine, citric acid, and natural flavors.

  • A Too Aggressive Competitive Marketing Strategy?
    A Too Aggressive Competitive Marketing Strategy? About Crystal Pepsi vs Tab Clear In his book “The End of Marketing as We Know It”, Sergio Zyman (ex-CMO of Coca-Cola) highlights an aggressive marketing campaign that he instigated against Pepsi-Cola when their arch-competitor introduced Crystal Pepsi. In simple terms, Crystal Pepsi was Pepsi without the coloring, so it looks like lemonade. By way of background, Sergio was the Chief Marketing Officer (CMO) at Coca-Cola during the 1980s and 1990s, where he was responsible for the highly successful launch of Diet Coke and the not so successful launch of New Coke. After leaving Coca-Cola, Sergio went on to establish a highly successful marketing consulting firm – which is where he encountered this situation. When Pepsi introduced Crystal Pepsi their intention was to capture a larger market share of the soft drink market, by having a Pepsi product that competed in the lemon-lime category primarily against 7-Up and Sprite – even though it was a cola drink. Sergio, at Coca-Cola, decided that they would go out of their way to neutralize the impact of the newly launched Pepsi product. One of Coca-Cola’s successful products at the time was Tab. Tab was Coca-Cola’s first diet cola drink, around 20 years before Diet Coke was introduced. To combat Crystal Pepsi, a product line extension of Tab Clear was introduced to compete directly against Crystal Pepsi. The key difference between the two products was that Tab was a diet drink, competing against a full sugar clear version of Pepsi.

Our story starts in the post-prohibition era of the 1930’s, when Kyle and Laura Kendall founded Kendall’s Pioneer Distributing in Bend, Oregon, where they sold beer and Coca-Cola. In 1940, the couple sold the business and with their daughter Barbara and future son-in-law Harold Corwin, moved to Vancouver, Washington to acquire the Vancouver Pepsi franchise. This business eventually became Corwin Beverage Company, a market leader known for award-winning sales and service. In 2014, the fourth generation of Kendalls saw a need in the marketplace for craft beer and wine delivered with the same high level of service the family was known for and launched a boutique distribution company to bring exclusive, emerging, regional craft brands to market. This business was named in honor of their founding generation’s entrepreneurial spirit and after two years of rapid growth and success, the new Kendall’s Pioneer merged with Corwin Beverage to bring the opportunities of our larger distribution operation to our local suppliers. From our humble beginnings with one truck and three employees, to over 100 trucks and more than 145 employees today, we’re active in supporting the communities we serve, and are proud of our employees, products and partnerships.
