34 PepsiCo, Inc. 2010 Annual Report

Provide access to safe
water to three million
people in developing
countries by the end
of2015.
Having pledged more than
$15million since 2005 toward
water projects, the PepsiCo
Foundation is working to allevi-
ate water scarcity in developing
countries. In fact, the Foundation
expects to provide access to
safewater for one million people
by the end of 2011, and to
increase the number to three
million people by 2015. The bulk
of the Foundation’s work is
being done in partnership with
Water.org, Safe Water Network,
China Women’s Development
Foundation and Earth Institute
at Columbia University.
Together, we make vitally impor-
tant water kiosks, household
connections and municipal
village systems available. At
the village level, with the
Foundation’s funds, our partners
can install farming irrigation,
rainwater-harvesting systems,
construct cisterns, and support
sanitation and hygiene educa-
tion programs.

Continue to lead the industry
by incorporating at least
10 percent recycled polyethylene
terephthalate (rPET) in our
primary soft drink containers
in the U.S., and broadly
expand the use of rPET across
key international markets.
We’ve been an industry leader in the
innovative use of food-grade rPET in
beverage containers in the U.S. market.
In 2010, we continued to meet our com-
mitment by including an average of
10percent rPET in our primary soft
drink containers in the U.S. We’re par-
ticularly proud that our Naked Juice
brand has commercialized a 100percent
post-consumer-recycled plastic bottle
in the domestic grocery channel.
Innovation is also driving our eort to
expand the use of rPET internationally.
For example, in France, during the third
quarter of 2010, we began selling
1.5-liter containers of Tropicana that
incorporated 50percent rPET. This
change represents an annual savings of
approximately 1.1million pounds of
resin. In 2011, we have plans to expand
our use of rPET in countries outside the
U.S. by more than 2.5million pounds. 25
Create partnerships
that promote the
increase of U.S. beverage
container recycling rates
to 50percent by 2018.
We’re creating national partnerships
and developing new technologies to
