PepsiCo to invest $260m in Georgia facility expansion

PepsiCo Beverages North America (PBNA), a division of PepsiCo, plans to invest $260 million in the expansion of its DeKalb County manufacturing facility. PepsiCo will expand its facility in Tucker, Georgia, by more than 260,000 square feet. The company aims to increase production five-fold at the site by 2025, making the manufacturing facility one of the largest in PBNA's portfolio. Karen Jordan, chief supply chain officer at PBNA, said: "This expansion will greatly increase PBNA’s production, serving nearby Atlanta and the wider Georgia region to continue the growth of our business and customers in the area. We are proud to increase our footprint locally as a supplier, producer and employer, bringing with us our gender equity and sustainability mission to create positive change." The investment will create at least 136 full-time jobs, increasing the company’s total number of employees in DeKalb County to over 600. PepsiCo and its subsidiaries have invested $460 million in the state of Georgia over the past two years. Stories you may also like to read:
