Pepsi’s $200 Billion Empire Is Collapsing — And Nobody Can Save It

Pepsi’s $200 Billion Empire Is Collapsing — And Nobody Can Save It In 1923, Pepsi went bankrupt over one bad bet on sugar. A century later, the company that rose from that wreckage built an empire selling your chips, your oatmeal, your sports drink, and your soda. Now that empire is losing to a cherry-flavored drink from Texas, a hedge fund has bought its way inside, and millions of customers have quietly stopped buying. Discover how the leftover brand Coca-Cola once refused to buy became worth more than Coke itself, how the 1965 Frito-Lay merger built an almost unstoppable machine, and why the factories, trucks, and pricing that powered PepsiCo's rise are now dragging it down.
