Pepsi smartphone planned for China

PepsiCo will market a range of mobile phones and accessories in China later this year.

The US beverage giant will licence its brand to a manufacturing partner with the Pepsi smartphone just one of a range of planned licensed products which will also include apparel.

“Available in China only, this effort is similar to recent globally licensed Pepsi products which include apparel and accessories,” a Pepsi spokeswoman told Reuters by email.

No further details were released about the phone’s specifications – or the manufacturing partner.

It won’t be the first technology product born of a partnership between Pepsi and an electronics brand. Last year it teamed up with Danish avant garde audiovisual manufacturer Bang & Olufsen to create Pepsi-branded products to support the soft drink brand’s soccer campaign.
