Rising consumer demand for fewer empty calories is pushing the snack and beverage giant to offer options with less sodium, fat and artificial ingredients.

PepsiCo said Tuesday that high prices and changing consumer tastes have weakened U.S. demand for its snacks and drinks but it's confident it can turn that around in the coming year. The Purchase, New York-based company said its revenue fell slightly to $27.

As expected, PepsiCo ( PEP) saw business disruptions across certain markets due to international conflicts and geopolitical tensions, factors which are expected to persist in 2025. Management's commentary on the impact of weight loss drugs indicates that the company may look to add more healthy snacks to its portfolio.
