In this video, Firstpost explains why KFC is replacing Pepsi with Coca-Cola across its US restaurants, ending a partnership that began in 1986. The switch will start in 2027, with all U.S. locations expected to transition by the end of the first quarter. The move comes as KFC seeks to win back customers from rivals like Chick-fil-A and Popeyes, while expanding its beverage offerings. For PepsiCo, the loss adds pressure amid slowing sales, rising costs and investor demands for improved performance. Coca-Cola gains a major opportunity to strengthen its presence in the competitive US fast-food market.
