PepsiCo has announced that its environmental sustainability programs saved the company more than $375 million since its goals were established in 2010. The savings were achieved through the continued progress of the company’s water, energy, packaging and waste-reduction initiatives. During the same time period, the company delivered double-digit net revenue and operating profit growth – demonstrating that investments in sustainability are mutually beneficial for business and society.

These efforts are part of the company’s commitment to Performance with Purpose, which is PepsiCo’s vision to deliver financial performance over the long term by integrating sustainability into its business strategy, leaving a positive imprint on society and the environment. The company’s achievements and progress are detailed in its 2014 Corporate Sustainability Report, Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Report and first-ever sustainability microsite, howwillwe.com.

“Performance with Purpose helps drive our business growth and prepares us to meet the needs of our changing world,” says Indra Nooyi, chairman and chief executive of PepsiCo. “As leaders gather this month to adopt the UN Sustainable Development Goals, PepsiCo will reflect on progress made to date and renew its focus on doing more in the years ahead. By continuing to apply our scale and capabilities to address shared societal challenges, we will further strengthen our company and the communities where we operate.”
