The expansion would include upgraded production rooms, an extension of water waste treatment, and the plant’s footprint to manage its manufacturing facilities.
The Colonia plant is one of two that PepsiCo operates in Uruguay and employs around 350 people.
The plant plays a significant part in formulating PepsiCo’s beverages, such as Pepsi, 7Up, Mirinda, and Gatorade.
The second plant in Montevideo is a key site for the company’s foods business for over 60 years.
