PepsiCo sets goals to lower sodium, incorporate more diverse ingredients
The Doritos manufacturer is in “a constant cycle of innovation to reimagine” foods so they are better for consumers without compromising on taste, a top executive said.
Snacking giant PepsiCo is aiming for at least 75% of its global convenient foods portfolio volume to meet or be below category sodium targets by 2030, the company said in a statement.
The Doritos and Fritos maker also vowed to increase its use of ingredients, such as legumes, whole grains, plant-based proteins, fruits and vegetables, and nuts and seeds, to promote a more nutritionally diverse diet.
The commitments are part of PepsiCo’s so-called Pep+ program established in 2021 that targets having a more positive impact on the environment, supply chain and the foods people consume.
