MenaBev

The last decade of the 19th Century sees the first appearance of Brad's drink - in 1895 in New Bern, North Carolina, U.S.A. This exciting new beverage will soon become more widely known as Pepsi-Cola.

1895 is also the year when X-rays are invented. In the following year the first modern Olympic Games are held in Athens, and Marconi gives the first demonstration of radio transmission.

The first Nobel Prizes are awarded in 1901. In 1902 the Pepsi-Cola trademark is registered and the first Pepsi-Cola advertisements appear. During the following year the Pepsi-Cola Company is formed in North Carolina - the same year the Wright Brothers make their historic first flight. Pepsi-Cola is available in bottles by 1904, and by 1909 there are 250 bottling plants across the United States. 1909 is also the year when Henry Ford introduces the Model-T Ford motorcar.

PepsiCo introduces Performance with Purpose, making it one of the first contemporary companies to recognize the important interdependence between corporations and society. In 2015, for the first time in history, Saudi Women stand in municipal elections, 20 are elected. For the years 2014 Et 2015, Jeddah is awarded the highly prestigious Caleb Bradham Platinum Award. In 2017 the Mega plant starts production and MenaBev is awarded the PepsiCo beverages franchise rights for Western KSA.

As we advance through the future, our journey is far from complete, and our new goals will be designed to build on our progress and broaden our efforts. In the words of PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi "We have mapped our plans against the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, and we believe the steps we are taking will help lift PepsiCo to even greater heights in the years ahead". Companies like ours have a tremendous opportunity - as well as a responsibility - to not only make a profit, but to do so in a way that makes a difference in the world.
