Frito-Lay has announced plans to deploy over 700 electric delivery vehicles across the U.S. by the end of 2023, which is expected to lower emissions by 7,052 metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions annually.
This is equivalent to removing 1,533 passenger cars from the road. The move is part of the company’s progress towards its PepsiCo Positive sustainability goals, including Positive Agriculture, Positive Value Chain, and Positive Choices.
Frito-Lay is committed to regenerative agriculture processes, using sustainable farming practices across its entire footprint, improving farmers’ livelihoods, and sourcing 100% of the corn and potatoes used to make its products in North America. The company is also progressing in renewable energy, water conservation, and recycling. In addition, Frito-Lay is incorporating more diverse and nutritional ingredients into its products and aims to have 100% of its packaging recyclable, compostable, biodegradable or reusable by 2025.
