PepsiCo will build a new chips and crackers plant in Novosibirsk

PepsiCo, an American corporation, laid the first stone of a future plant where salty snacks will be produced in the Novosibirsk region.

The plant will be PepsiCo's third plant for the production of such snacks in the Russian Federation. In total more than 20 enterprises of the corporation operate in the country. The company's investments during this time in Russia have exceeded $10 billion.

The document on construction of the new factory was signed last year during the Sochi Investment Forum. The investments will amount to about 12 bln rubles.

Along with that, the American company will start implementing an agricultural programme in the region, the aim of which is to provide the plant with local potatoes.

As of today, all the potato chips that the company makes in Russia are made only of local raw materials. Now the corporation cooperates with over 50 agricultural enterprises throughout the country.

The first two lines of the plant will start working at the end of next year. More than 60 thousand tons of chips and crackers will be produced here.
