PepsiCo says it's two-thirds of the way done with an overhaul of its supply chain. This article is part of "The Future of Supply-Chain Management," a series on companies' manufacturing and distribution strategies. With more automation, workers are doing fewer physical tasks, like driving a forklift, and far more oversight of the machines taking over those tasks. Workers at manufacturing facilities and distribution centers and the unions that represent them often bristle at automation, which can lead to layoffs. Even as it has invested in automation, PepsiCo's total workforce has swelled: It grew by 20%, to 318,000, over the five years that ended in 2023.

Athina Kanioura, PepsiCo's first-ever chief strategy and transformation officer, has revamped the company's internal digital strategies. "If you treat this as a technology change, it will not be successful," she said. "There weren't global standards," she said. "We had to work to correct and, in some cases, get rid of some of the standards that existed and replace them with global standards," she said. Mapping out a communication campaign and establishing global standards are great first steps, she said.
