PepsiCo India Anticipates Steady Festive Snack Sales Amid New Product LaunchesPreviousNext

PepsiCo India expects its festive snack sales to match last year's growth, driven by new product launches and convenience-focused options that align with evolving consumer preferences. The company is expanding its portfolio across snacks, better-for-you products, and premium offerings, with a focus on ready-to-eat items available on e-commerce platforms. Meanwhile, SLMG Beverages, India's largest Coca-Cola bottler, reports strong double-digit sales growth during the festive season, boosted by Diwali gift pack demand and sustained consumer interest through November and December.
