Abstract

The case describes PepsiCo’s sustainability related initiatives that encompassed its operations, products, and supply chain partners. PepsiCo’s sustainability strategy targeted every stage of the value chain.

It also mentions the company’s ambitious commitments to science-based climate goals made in 2016.
