For over 65 years now, the Kingdom has been our home and we are proud to engage with local institutes such as Prince Sultan University to further drive our ambitious sustainability agenda. Guided by PepsiCo Positive (pep+), PepsiCo\u2019s strategic end-to-end transformation for driving long-term sustainability, we are working towards building a circular and inclusive value chain globally. We aim to strengthen our efforts towards achieving a zero-waste future for the university campus, and challenge students to dig deeper into the issue of plastic waste and the benefits of a circular economy through academic research.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dr. Ahmed Yamani, President of Prince Sultan University, said,&nbsp;<\/strong>\u201cWe are delighted to be working closely with PepsiCo on our Zero Waste initiative and ensuring we are aligned with the goals set for Saudi Vision 2030. The projects presented by the students are a direct reflection of PSU\u2019s commitment to the future generation of leaders. Our students are of course our priority, and we are proud to be leading them in the right direction with PepsiCo\u2019s sustainable agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout the region, PepsiCo\u2019s sustainability efforts have been at the forefront of an evolution towards eco-conscious consumption in a circular economy. By working closely with local bottling partners, the brand ensures that large amounts of plastic remain diverted from landfills. PepsiCo and key partners, including mass waste collector WASCO and environmental solution provider, Naqaa, have installed 16 smart, solar-powered sorting machines to collect and sort empty plastic bottles in Makkah, and placed 80 recycling stations at the race start in Jeddah of the Dakar Rally. The MoU with Prince Sultan University is one way PepsiCo is bringing its visionary goals to life in Saudi Arabia.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SAUDI ARABIA, 2nd&nbsp;April 2023&nbsp;\u2013 Following the memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed in September 2022, PepsiCo, the leading food and beverage company in the region, Prince Sultan University (PSU), and Center for Sustainbility and Climate have activated their first phase of student competitions, with winners announced last Monday.
