Food and beverage major PepsiCo plans to invest ₹5,700 crore in India by 2030 to expand manufacturing capacity and strengthen its long-term presence in one of its fastest-growing markets. The investment will largely focus on scaling the company’s foods business through a mix of greenfield and brownfield projects.
According to PepsiCo India and South Asia CEO Jagrut Kotecha, the company sees significant growth potential in India driven by rising consumption and improving market conditions. India is currently among PepsiCo’s top 13 global markets.
New Facilities Planned in MP, Assam, and Tamil Nadu
The investment will primarily support manufacturing facilities in Madhya Pradesh, Assam, and Tamil Nadu. PepsiCo is developing a concentrates plant in Madhya Pradesh, while new snacks manufacturing units are planned in Assam and Tamil Nadu to strengthen regional production capabilities.
The Tamil Nadu expansion is expected to significantly enhance PepsiCo’s footprint in southern India, particularly in the snacks segment. Some facilities, including the Assam and Madhya Pradesh projects, are expected to become operational within the next few months.
India Emerges as Key Growth Market for PepsiCo
PepsiCo India reported revenue of nearly ₹9,798 crore in 2025, marking an 8% year-on-year increase, while profit after tax rose to ₹905 crore, supported by strong growth in its foods portfolio.
The expansion comes amid intensifying competition in India’s FMCG and beverages market, with companies increasing investments to capture rising consumer demand across packaged foods and drinks.
