Pepsi to use new-look brand logo to display emotions

LONDON - Pepsi has unveiled dramatic changes to its logo as part of a planned $1.2bn (£700m) global brand makeover.

Pepsi to use new-look brand logo to display emotions

The iconic red and blue globe logo, which was created in the 50s, has undergone various tweaks over the years but is now being used to portray a series of emotions across the brand's portfolio.

On Diet Pepsi the logo appears as a slight grin, on Pepsi a smile, and on Pepsi Max it is meant to look like laughter.

Pepsi recently posted a record share of the UK cola market of 23%-24%, following heavy Pepsi Max marketing activity. On a global scale, however, the brand announced plans to cut jobs because of poor profits.
