36th Annual Campden Lecture - Wednesday 11 June 2014
PepsiCo Global R&D transformation journey:
a strategic corporate partner enhancing PepsiCo's
business today and tomorrow
by Dr Mehmood Khan
Executive Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer
of PepsiCo Global Research and Development
It is an absolute pleasure and a delight to be back here for a number of reasons. I want to thank Steven, the
Campden BRI Organization, and all of you for taking up some time and letting me share some comments.
I was asked to cover two or three things. One, of course, is our innovation journey at PepsiCo. The second
is a little peek into where we think much of this industry’s evolution, from our perspective, is going and how
a lot of the forces that are shaping our industry are evolving.
Before I do that, most people think of PepsiCo, of course, as Pepsi Cola, our wonderful brand. If I told you
that the cola business makes up maybe a fifth of our business, as Pepsi Cola the brand itself, it will tell you
how big and diversified our company is. So let me share with you a little bit about Pepsi by the numbers, so
to speak.
We’re about a $70 billion annual revenue company. We are the largest American food and beverage
company, one of the largest in the world, by any definition the most diverse, by far. We have 22 billion
dollar brands in the world. Give you some idea. If we were a pharma company, we would have 22
blockbusters.
So to be the head of R&D and the head of innovation for the global corporation, it’s quite a daunting
task as I look across the enterprise. Where do you actually prioritize? Where do you pick your battles?
And what do you grow? What do you invest? Which is part of my mandate under the leadership of our
chairman Indra Nooyi, to whom I report.
A couple of other numbers, and probably the one that keeps me up most at night, is that 1.3 billion
humans consume a PepsiCo product every day. That’s one in five of the entire planet. That gives you an
idea of our size, our reach, our distribution, our manufacturing capacity. But at the end of the day, when
you’re a $70 billion business and you expect it to grow between 5% to 10%, we have to generate about a
$6 to $7 billion new business every year, of which the majority has to come from innovation.
That is the mandate of my organization. How do you innovate when you already are of this size and scale
across the world? I’ll touch on that. But to do that, let me share with you our R&D journey and a little bit
of the history of the company. We don’t have the sort of history of the wonderful companies and the
3
institutions that I grew up with here in England. Pepsi is about 100 years old. PepsiCo will be celebrating its
50-year anniversary next year. I’ve been learning with a 100-year history of Campden and their wonderful
work and food integrity, of course. Touched on Warburtons.
We are one of the oldest brands in the US. Historically PepsiCo, like many American brands and many
Western brands, grew purely by distribution scale and opening up new markets. That model of opening up
new markets had a very clear working formula. You took your great brand. You added it to a grow-to-
market system. You opened up new markets. You took that brand into that new market, and you scaled
up. That allowed you to continue to grow.
For us, we grew to be today doing business in 200 countries. I literally have regulatory, nutrition or R&D
people that ultimately report up to my organization in almost 200 countries. I’m glad I don’t have to hold
meetings in every one of them. I’m certainly on the road, but that would be crazy.
That all worked up until about 2000. Up until about 15 years ago, this was going just fine. About 15 years
ago, the world started to change from our perspective, and it changed in some very dramatic ways. First of
all, traditional media channels became very crowded. The cost of advertising and marketing through
traditional media became relatively crowded – lacking differentiation. The competition for the attention of
time drove such that the ROI started to really look different. The Internet came on. Social media started to
change everything. The way we think about engaging with our consumer was going to go through a rapid
change.
Consumers, for decades if not centuries, really cared about a couple of things. Is the food safe and clean?
Does it taste great? And is it going to be consistent wherever I buy it? They didn’t read labels. Most of the
time, knowledge of the supply chain, the ingredients, constituents, all of that was known in the industry but
not by the consumer, because most consumers didn’t care.
Then there was a shift, information became more connected and accessible to everybody anywhere,
developed or developing market. On the positive side, people started to connect with each other, started
asking questions, and information started to become even more transparent than it already was over that
decade.
There is a challenge, however, which we face every day. The accuracy of that data, the integrity of that
information, and the appropriate balance and interpretation, which was an editorial function, suddenly
disappeared with social media and free media availability. So there is no longer the ability to actually fact
check. So facts sometimes are questionable. Certainly information has been ahead of the curve of any sense
of understanding and professional expertise to judge it. But that’s a topic for a different day, something that
any of us that are in this business deal with.
Consumers clearly were going to have more and more power and more and more say in what they
consume, where it comes from, how it’s made. 2007 Indra Nooyi, our CEO and chairman, took over, and
within months of that, started a search to hire the first global head of R&D of PepsiCo.
What was very different and unique in the industry then and today is she and the board chose to go
outside the food and beverage industry. I had never worked with a food and beverage industry myself, and I
found myself heading up R&D for one of the world’s biggest, most iconic food and beverage companies.
I can tell you, media certainly noticed.
4
What’s an endocrinologist from the Mayo Clinic, professor of medicine, previous president of R&D for a
pharmaceutical company going to come into a food and beverage company like PepsiCo? And what are we
going to do? There’s other questions that I got, you can imagine, from my professors, my faculty. My father
called me up from Manchester, England and said, “I thought you were a doctor.” I said, “Well, I still am, dad.
I can still write a prescription. It’s just never to you.”
As I started taking over the helm of this great company, there were some challenges. First of all, all of our
R&D was fragmented across different business units that had been acquired or built, but nobody reported to
me. In fact, the day I arrived at PepsiCo, I had one direct report, which was my administrative assistant. Other
than a travel budget, I had no control over the budget.
So budget was fragmented. The people were distributed. No reporting relationships. The mandate I got from
the board is, “Knit it all together. Change the organization. Change the innovation process. We need to grow
top line. We need to grow bottom line. Otherwise, we do not see sustainable growth without this, and we
will invest.”
Well, I can tell you I can talk about a lot of different things that we did over the years, but probably the most
important decision to be made at that time was the talent. We knew we had great talent the organization,
but everybody who reported to me or theoretically reported to me, because they were actually not my direct
reports for a few weeks until I changed that, were male, Caucasian, white.
Every one of them had only worked in the United States. They’d been veterans of PepsiCo for decades. In
essence, we had one person who was more junior in the ranks, that was based in Europe. That was the
executive team of one of the world’s most iconic food and beverage companies.
A global company, a global R&D innovation, but a very homogenous, uniform executive team to lead that.
We were about to change that. Fast forward next six to seven years. I have on my executive team now three
Europeans who report directly to me. One is based actually right here in the United Kingdom, one based in
the Middle East, covering Middle Eastern Asia, one in the US. Of my executive team, three are women. We
have senior VP or higher that represents the incredible cultural diversity of PepsiCo. I can go on and on, but
half the team is women. Half the team are international. Half the team are diverse. It started to change.
But most importantly, that’s the diversity you see. Of the team that was recruited by myself, three of them had
never worked in the food and beverage industry. They came from completely different industries. One came from
pharmaceuticals. One came from beauty care. One came from the supply chain of the US military, and prior to
that, the restaurant industry. We set about shaping what we thought was going to be a very different future.
Why do I say brought it from different industries? Because in my experience, if you’re going to innovate, if
you’re going to grow, most progress happens not within a discipline, but at the borders and crossover
between disciplines. This was an amazing opportunity to bring the culture and innovation of heavy engineering,
life sciences, biotechnology, our traditional food and beverage engineering, and bring them together.
A challenge as a leader, but a huge opportunity to change not only PepsiCo, but what we believe will start to
move the industry. Because when you are one of the biggest, if not the biggest player in the industry, you
move your needle. The industry will, by definition, move since, given our scale and our reach, we start to
redefine things.
So since 2011, as I said, we increased the R&D budget by more than 25% each year. We started to look at it
as a more and more global investment. The R&D organization became one global organization, reporting to
5
one executive leader, one budget, one team, one global look. We started to now throw out different strategic
bets. Instead of investing in products, we started investing in platforms. That was a very important shift.
We used to talk about project and product innovation. We started to talk about platform innovation,
platforms that could be leveraged in multiple countries, platforms that could be scaled, and at the end of the
day, go across our portfolio. Some were near term, which are now delivering in the market. Some are long
term, some of which now with technology breakthroughs, have happened. They’re going to be appearing in
products in the next 24, 36 months.
So what do the numbers show? If you’re the CFO of the company, of course, you ask the question, “Okay.
So what do I get for all of this?” Let me give you a couple of proof points. If you measure net revenue growth
as a percent of your base, coming from R&D products, that is products that were launched in the last
36 months, brand new products to the market, our run rate used to be in the mid single digits. We increased
that initially up to about 8% of our net revenue, coming from R&D-based products.
In 2013 versus 2012, we increased that another percentage point to 9%. To give you an idea on a $70 billion
base, that’s another $700 million in revenue, just that 1%. So every time we talk about a 1% increase in
revenue from R&D, we’re talking about top line growth of $700 million. So we’ve bumped it up already by
more than a billion dollars on the top line.
On the bottom line, in addition to that - and by the way, most of these products have either the runway or
already are margin accretive - so from a margin point of view, they’re better, are pricing better, and our cost
structure is better. In addition to that, we’ve been creating around a quarter-billion dollars a year in
operational efficiencies, by cost savings, the materials, energy, water, or cost of distribution, the way we’ve
designed the products right from scratch, as opposed to after the fact.
So that was to the bottom line. If we think about how we’re doing to our competition, probably the one
statistic that makes me the most proud is in the United States, our biggest market, if you look at the top 50
food and beverage launches of the entire industry in the U.S. last year in 2013, of the top 50, 9 came out of
my labs. When one-fifth of the industry’s innovation is coming out of your labs, you know you’re firing on all
four cylinders.
So we’re growing top line, we’re adding to the margin, and we’re winning against the competition. It isn’t just
in food or just in beverages. Of those nine products, four came out of beverages, and five came out of foods,
completely balanced across the portfolio. Some of these are amazing products and how they’re redefining
their categories.
So I pick one of them, for example. Everybody’s seen the growth of the energy category. We decided not to
build on that portfolio, but we picked up that there was a need in the morning for people who don’t drink
coffee, don’t want an energy drink, we launched in the United States Mountain Dew Kick Start, caffeine level
of a CSD, based on 5% juice, great marketing behind it, great pricing, significantly margin accretive to our juice
business and our CSD business. In the first few months, it hit $100 million in sales, first few months.
On the food side, a brand that you all know well in this country is Müller. We took Muller through a joint venture
that I had the privilege of leading as the CEO of the global nutrition group, created a business from scratch, as a
50/50 GAV, launched the Muller Quaker portfolio, and that business is $100 million business in its first year.
Similarly, we created the first major national hummus brand in the US, in partnership with Strauss, the Sabra
business. In 36 months from launch, it has become the country’s number one hummus brand. The power of
6
our product development, go-to-market distribution with great innovation, and you can keep winning in great
margin accretive businesses, which are very different to our traditional.
Of course, my friend and colleague in the audience, Neil Campbell, and I worked together on Tropicana, Trop
50. You’ll be delighted to hear Trop 50 Farmstand, which you and I co-led the creation of, was one of those
9 top 50 products in the country. So another reason for being here is, of course, having my marketing
colleague right here. It’s always been a battle as who’s going to drive what innovation, but it was a wonderful
partnership, Neil.
The third access I wanted to touch on is . . . We said, “Okay. We’ll grow our food and beverage innovation.
We’ll grow them as power of one. We’ll look at top line. We’ll look at bottom line.” But the other part of the
business we tended to not focus on as much in the past was our food service business. But food service for
us, we used to use the word partner very loosely. Partner meant we would go to a restaurant or a food
service customer and provide them our beverages, and mostly negotiation since there’s little differentiation.
Most of our beverages negotiation was on price, distribution cost. That has hurt the industry.
Partner, to me, is shared values, shared returns, not a vendor relationship. That’s very different. Vendor
relationships are important. Partnership implies shared risk, shared gain. So we did it a little different this time.
A member of my team, Stephen Kalil, started with a culinary arts center, which we had built about six years
ago. If you ever get a chance, do visit. We now have a global culinary arts team. A number of these chefs are
both PhDs in science, as well as master chefs in their training. Really right brain/left brain combo type of people.
Stephen Kalil’s team came up and said, “Look, we have a great brand in Doritos, but Doritos, other than a
packaged product, doesn’t extend itself further, but it could go into food service.” So what’d they do? They sit
down with engineering and create a taco, a hard shell taco, which we branded in partnership with Taco Bell as
Doritos.
The engineering of this was quite a challenge. It took us a year to fix, because to take a hard shell taco and
put seasoning on the inside and outside evenly without it concentrating on the crease and without it getting
bitter because there’s too much on one side or too little on the other, was not an easy task. Let alone, make
a billion tacos without them breaking.
Well, the team was up for the challenge at Frito-Lay. And guess what? It was launched as Doritos Locos
Tacos, only two years ago. In 24 months, brand new launch of a product that’s never been on the market.
Last year, Doritos Locos Tacos have exceeded $1 billion in retail sales. Never sold outside the US. So we just
created another billion dollar new business, top-line food service, from scratch, based on an R&D idea, R&D
technology, great partnership and go-to-market from Taco Bell, and of course our food service team. But we
aren’t stopping there.
We said, “What can we do to shake up the beverage industry in food service?” We had now said, “Okay.
We’re there, showing our partners that we are more than a beverage company in our innovation.” For the
last five years, I had the opportunity to lead the engineering, the beverage, and the commercialization team
with a secret project internally that we used to call Shock Wave.
That project, whose project manager, Rich Schutzenhofer, wanted to retire once. We said, “No. You can
retire, but in five years when you’ve done this project.” He came from our operations team, reported into me
at R&D, and we said, “We are going to create the world’s most comprehensive portfolio of vending
technology for beverages the world has never seen.” Those of you who were there, we actually unveiled it at
the National Restaurant Association in Chicago about three weeks ago.
7
It is a portfolio of equipment starting from low thousands, going up to $20,000 a piece of equipment, the
first of a kind in terms of breadth. A typical machine can give you up to a thousand different beverages
from one machine. You can customize the drink to the individual. The interaction and engagement is
through a 40-inch touchscreen. It has the ability to add a variety of shots. Every single machine is
connectable to the Internet.
We will know, and know now, every single beverage that is being poured by zip code, by restaurant. We
know what the consumer is buying, how they’re creating the product, which product. If you think that
technology is innovation, look what it’s about to do to marketing and consumer research. Our history as an
industry was we launched something based on consumer insights, put it in the supermarket. Something that
sold we then put into food service.
My friends, the world’s about to change. Because now, what R&D is doing is learning from that huge
amount of data coming in from the marketplace by individual drinks. We’re not talking about consumer
insights. We’re talking about knowing consumer behavior. That’s different. One is asking somebody and
predicting what they might do, versus actually knowing what they did, and then taking their most favorite
creations, and then producing them and putting them on the supermarket shelf.
We’re completely about to turn around innovation as a process. So the difference between engineering,
consumer insights, product development, creation, co-creation, brand engagement is completely changing as
we build out this system. These units are now in beta testing in the marketplace. If you’re visiting the US,
you can see them. We’ve put some early versions in Europe. But the best news, in terms of our
competitive advantage, is what I’m about to share with you.
For about 50-some years, Disney has been an exclusive Coca-Cola account, long-term relationship we
never were able to crack. Disney’s new flagship theme park in the world, not surprisingly, is going to be in
Shanghai, China. Shanghai, China Disney will be a Pepsi account. It was won over by one important new
variable. The innovation pipeline and the ability to create at PepsiCo had completely changed the game.
So you know when your organization is delivering for your company when you can grow the top line, when
you can grow the bottom line, when you can improve operational efficiency, when you can create new
platforms. The ultimate test comes when you can win over your competitors’ customers and swing them
over to your business, based on what you’re doing.
So all of this has redefined, for us, what we think about as R&D. Is it anymore R&D? I don’t think. And I’ve
worked in three different industries now: life sciences and healthcare as a physician, pharmaceuticals and
biotechnology as a biotechnologist, and now the consumer industry. There are some commonalities. There
are differences. I don’t care what your background is. The opportunity to learn, think, and be willing to take
risks in new directions is what moves the needle.
Doing the same thing in a different way doesn’t move much at all. You have to take risks. You have to be
brave. Most importantly, you have to have leadership that sees the vision with you. But the critical sauce is
the talent and the people and the diverse thinking that they bring.
So let me finish off, touching a little bit about what we think as we’re just touching the first phase, a very
exciting period for this industry. It’s an industry. We get criticized. Often, our critics have little understanding
of the impact and the positive work we do for the world. There are a billion people who go hungry every
night on this planet. The world’s population today is about seven-and-a-half billion. It will be about
8
nine-and-a-half billion by 2050, well within the lifetime of just about all of the students in this room and
most people in this room.
That incremental two billion people means we have to create about 40% more food on the planet than we
do today. There’s a billion hungry today. If we need a 40% increase in food production, we will get two to
two-and-a-half billion hungry people on the planet if we don’t do something different. Doing the same little
twist here and there isn’t going to change it, because we only have about 30 to 35 years to do it in. That’s
basically one generation.
Land use is a challenge because we’re not creating more land. We’re not creating more water. In fact, our
production per hectare if anything has plateaued, if not declining, for a whole variety of reasons, at a time
when governments are pulling back in R&D investment from the food and beverage and agricultural
industry, when all governments should be thinking about how to invest more. Because if you think about
global security, it’ll happen because we have global food security. We have global water security.
So the food and beverage industry has a critical, critical role in the sustainable part of human society,
probably the most fundamental need of every human being, which is our ability to eat clean, safe food and
drink clean, safe water. It’s going to take great R&D. It’s going to take great operations. It’s going to take
great leaders. And most of all, it’s going to take great collaboration.
That’s something we, at PepsiCo, were not very good at in the past. When I took over, our focus was not
only US centric, but it was internal to PepsiCo. We’ve completely changed that. As I said, we brought in
new leaders from new industries. We now have molecular biologists, endocrinologists, cardiovascular
specialists, engineers, hydrologists, computational biologists, big data analytics, all of that. If you come to one
of our Pepsi labs, you will see molecular biology in ways that you’ll not see in a life sciences university, all
the way through to material scientists, engineers, from the energy industry.
We built a solar-powered plant in Modesto, California. We have a plant in Arizona. The entire factory is
solar-powered. All in the last six to seven years. But as we think about the real ideas, they’re going to come
from outside the company. In the last four years, we’ve signed 50 different contracts with universities,
academic centers, research organizations. That’s one a month. Every four weeks on average, we’re signing a
new contract with a new university or a new institution or a new government entity for research and
development alone. It’s keeping our lawyers very busy. We’ve added a very large IP team, but we’ve really
opened ourselves up.
My last statement is that many of my young students, and I teach around different universities, come up to
me and say, “Mehmood, what is the secret to keeping this going and the success?” My favorite line, which I
truly believe, is I’ve made a career out of never having to come up with a good idea. In fact, I’m waiting for
my first good idea. I’ve got about eight years left to retire. So I’m hoping it’s imminent!
However, I’ve made a career out of recognizing other peoples’ good ideas. All you have to do as a leader is
you don’t have to worry about coming up with an idea. Just keep your eyes open, your ears open, and
most importantly your mind open. When you hear a good idea, embrace it. Take a risk on it. Back it, and
the odds are it’ll pay off.
Thank you very much.
