The recipe for Pepsi was first developed in the 1880s by a pharmacist named Caleb Bradham. He created the Pepsi-Cola Company in 1902. In 1931, Pepsi was declared bankrupt and bought by Loft Incorporation. In 1965, Pepsi merged with Frito-Lay, forming PepsiCo. PepsiCo has since expanded its product portfolio through acquisitions of brands like Tropicana, Gatorade, and Quaker. Today, PepsiCo is a global food and beverage giant with a diverse portfolio of brands and annual revenues over $70 billion.
