In a statement, the company said, “The new design evolves the Pepsi brand to represent its most unapologetic and enjoyable qualities and will span across all physical and digital touchpoints, including packaging, fountain and cooler equipment, fleet, fashion and dining.”

Pepsi plays a critical role in achieving the PepsiCo Positive sustainable packaging targets and in the US, as of 2022, Pepsi has begun to convert all 20oz bottles of Pepsi, including Pepsi Zero Sugar to 100% recycled PET.

Throughout its storied history, Pepsi has maintained a bold challenger mindset and a strong link to pop culture. From the Pepsi Challenge and reimagining the Super Bowl Halftime Show, to creating some of the most iconic ads of all time with the world's most renowned musicians and actors, Pepsi has always pushed the culture forward to deliver one-of-a-kind fan experiences in a timely way

Pepsi also continuously reinvents itself with brave marketing and product innovation, from creating its own television shows, exploring Web3 and introducing compelling new varieties over the years including the recent Nitro Pepsi, Pepsi x Peeps, Pepsi for SodaStream and an improved Pepsi Zero Sugar taste in the US.

"At PepsiCo, we design our brands to tell a compelling and holistic story. Pepsi is a shining example of a brand that has consistently reinvented itself over 125 years to remain a part of pop culture and a part of people's lives," said Mauro Porcini, SVP and Chief Design Officer of PepsiCo. "We designed the new brand identity to connect future generations with our brand's heritage, marrying distinction from our history with contemporary elements to signal our bold vision for what's to come."

"Pepsi is an iconic brand that is constantly evolving with the times, as it has been a staple in pop culture and disrupted the category for the past 125 years," said Todd Kaplan, Chief Marketing Officer - Pepsi. "We couldn't be more excited to begin a new era for Pepsi, as this exciting new and modern look will drive brand distinction to show up bigger and bolder and help people find new ways to unapologetically enjoy the things they love. This new visual system brings out the best of the Pepsi brand's rich heritage while taking a giant leap forward to set it up for success in an increasingly digital world."

Key design elements of the logo include:

• The Pepsi globe and wordmark unite to fit into a variety of settings and emphasize the distinctive Pepsi branding.
• An updated colour palette introduces electric blue and black to bring contrast, vibrancy, and a contemporary edge to the classic Pepsi colour scheme. Given the brand's continued focus on Pepsi Zero Sugar, the design brings in the colour black, further showing the brand's commitment to Pepsi Zero Sugar in the future.
• A new visually distinct can silhouette, which heroes the iconic Pepsi can as an accessible brand for all.
• A modern, custom typeface reflects the brand's confidence and unapologetic mindset.
• The signature Pepsi pulse evokes the "ripple, pop and fizz" of Pepsi-Cola with movement. It also brings the rhythm and energy of music, an important and continuing part of the Pepsi legacy.
