OBJECTIVE OF STUDY
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Corporate social responsibility (CSR, also called corporate
conscience, corporate citizenship or responsible business) is a form of corporate
self-regulation integrated into a business model. CSR policy functions as a self-
regulatory mechanism whereby a business monitors and ensures its active
compliance with the spirit of the law, ethical standards and national or
international norms. With some models, a firm's implementation of CSR goes
beyond compliance and engages in "actions that appear to further some social
good, beyond the interests of the firm and that which is required by law." The aim
is to increase long-term profits through positive public relations, high ethical
standards to reduce business and legal risk, and shareholder trust by taking
responsibility for corporate actions.
1.2 DEFINATION
The term "corporate social responsibility" became popular in the 1960s and has
remained a term used indiscriminately by many to cover legal and moral
responsibility more narrowly construed.
Most consumers agree that while achieving business targets, companies should do
CSR at the same time. Most consumers believe companies doing charity will
receive a positive response. Somerville also found that consumers are loyal and
willing to spend more on retailers that support charity. Consumers also believe that
retailers selling local products will gain loyalty. Smith (2013) shares the belief that
marketing local products will gain consumer trust. However, environmental efforts
are receiving negative views given the belief that this would affect customer
service. Oppewal et al. (2006) found that not all CSR activities are attractive to
consumers. They recommended that retailers focus on one activity. Becker-Olsen
(2006) found that if the social initiative done by the company is not aligned with
other company goals it will have a negative impact. Mohr et al.(2001) and Groza et
al. (2011) also emphasize the importance of reaching the consumer.
Creating Shared Value, or CSV is based on the idea that corporate success and social
welfare are interdependent. A business needs a healthy, educated workforce,
sustainable resources and adept government to compete effectively. For society to
thrive, profitable and competitive businesses must be developed and supported to
create income, wealth, tax revenues and philanthropy. The Harvard Business
Review article Strategy & Society: The Link between Competitive Advantage and
Corporate Social Responsibility provided examples of companies that have
developed deep linkages between their business strategies and CSR. CSV
acknowledges trade-offs between short-term profitability and social or
environmental goals, but emphasizes the opportunities for competitive advantage
from building a social value proposition into corporate strategy. CSV gives the
impression that only two stakeholders are important - shareholders and consumers.
1.5 IMPLEMENTATION
Community involvement: This can include raising money for local charities,
providing volunteers, sponsoring local events, employing local workers,
supporting local economic growth, engaging in fair trade practices, etc.
Non-profits such as Ceres (organization) and As You Sow, and investing firms
such as Calvert Investments promote corporate responsibility through
shareholder mobilization and corporate engagement.
Creating Shared Value (CSV) claims to be more community aware than CSR.
Several companies are refining their collaboration with stakeholders accordingly.
1.14 LAWS
CSR/SRI policies
In 1995, item S50K of the Income Tax Act of Mauritius mandated that companies
registered in Mauritius paid 2% of their annual book profit to contribute to the
social and environmental development of the country. In 2014, India also enacted a
mandatory minimum CSR spending law. Under Companies Act, 2013, any
company having a net worth of 500 crore or more or a turnover of 1,000 crore or a
net profit of 5 crore must spend 2% of their net profits on CSR activities. The rules
came into effect from 1 April 2014.
1.15 GEOGRAPHY
Corporations that employ CSR behaviors do not always behave consistently in all
parts of the world. Conversely, a single behavior may not be considered ethical in
all jurisdictions. E.g., some jurisdictions forbid women from driving, while others
require women to be treated equally in employment decisions.

ORIGIN
The recipe for the soft drink Pepsi was first developed in the 1880s by Caleb
Bradham, a pharmacist and industrialist from New Bern, North Carolina. He
coined the name "Pepsi-Cola" in 1898. As the cola developed in popularity, he
created the Pepsi-Cola Company in 1902 and registered a patent for his recipe in
1903. The Pepsi-Cola Company was first incorporated in the state of Delaware in
1919. The company went bankrupt in 1931 and on June 8 of that year, the
trademark and syrup recipe were purchased by Charles Guth who owned a syrup
manufacturing business in Baltimore, Maryland. Guth was also the president
of Loft, Incorporated, a leading candy manufacturer, and he used the company's
labs and chemists to reformulate the syrup. He further contracted to stock the soda
in Loft's large chain of candy shops and restaurants, which were known for their
soda fountains, used Loft resources to promote Pepsi, and moved the soda
company to a location close by Loft's own facilities in New York City. In 1935, the
shareholders of Loft sued Guth for his 91% stake of Pepsi-Cola Company in the
landmark case Guth v. Loft Inc. Loft won the suit and on May 29, 1941 formally
absorbed Pepsi into Loft, which was then re-branded as Pepsi-Cola Company that
same year. Loft restaurants and candy stores were spun off at this time. In the early
1960s, Pepsi-Cola's product lines expanded with the creation of Diet Pepsi and
purchase of Mountain Dew.
In 1965, the Pepsi-Cola Company merged with Frito-Lay, Inc. to become PepsiCo,
Inc... At the time of its foundation, PepsiCo was incorporated in the state
of Delaware and headquartered in Manhattan, New York. The company's
headquarters were relocated to their present location of Purchase, New York in
1970, and in 1986 PepsiCo was reincorporated in the state of North Carolina
Between 1990 and 1995, PepsiCo funded The MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour on
public television
PepsiCo, Inc. is currently one of the most successful consumer products company
in the world with annual revenues exceeding $30 billion and has more than
480,000 employees. PepsiCo, Inc. began as a successor to a company incorporated
in 1931, known as Loft Inc. Once known as Pepsi-Cola, the company expanded its
business and adopted its current name, PepsiCo, after a merger with Frito-Lay in
1965. This merger dramatically increased PepsiCo's market potential and set the
foundation for the company's tremendous growth. PepsiCo's products are
recognized and are most respected all around the globe. Currently, PepsiCo
divisions operate in three major US and international businesses: beverages, snack
foods, and restaurants. In each of these businesses, PepsiCo has attained a
leadership position as being the world leader in soft drink bottling g, the world
largest snack chip producer, and the world largest franchised and company
operated restaurant system. The corporations increasing success has been based on
high standards of performance, marketing strategies, competitiveness,
determination, commitment, and the personal and professional integrity of their
people, products and business practices PepsiCo's overall mission is to increase the

businesses outside of its core focus of packaged food and beverage brands;
however it exited these non-core business lines largely in 1997, selling some, and
spinning off others into a new company named Tricon Global Restaurants, which
later became known as Yum! Brands, Inc. PepsiCo also previously owned several
other brands that it later sold so it could focus on its primary snack food and
beverage lines, according to investment analysts reporting on the divestments in
1997. Brands formerly owned by PepsiCo include: Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, KFC, Hot

CHAPTER THREE CSR
ADOPTED BY PEPSICO
CSR ADOPTED BY PEPSICO
In 2003, Pepsi Co India embarked on its quest to achieve positive water balance by
2009. That means Pepsi Co India will conserve, recharge, and thus replenish more
water in its plants and in its communities, than the total water it uses to
manufacture beverage products.
Reducing water debit Pepsi Co Indias efforts to achieve Positive Water Balance
commenced with initiatives across beverage manufacturing plants to revalue
water as a resource through a comprehensive movement to conserve and optimize
water usage within the manufacturing process (or the debit side of the water
balance equation).In the last two years alone the company has saved over 2 billion
liters of water.
Pepsi Co India has adopted processes to treat process water before returning it to
non-potable water uses. For cooling towers, watering gardens and flushes, water is
being reused and the plants are moving towards becoming a zero discharge facility.
Harvesting water
Rain or roof water harvesting methods have become standard practice for all Pepsi
Co India plants in order to maintain and strengthen water reserves in the
surrounding areas.Examples consist of the Jainpur, Bazpur, Bharuch, Palakkad,
Panipat and Neelamangalaplants, along along with the Frito Lay foods plants in
Channo and Pune, which harvest andcollect rain water in excavated lakes and
ponds while the Mamundar, Mahul and Panipatplants use roof water harvesting to
rejuvenate the surrounding aquifers.
Having reduced the "debit" side of the water balance equation significantly,
attention wa sfocused on earning the "credits" to achieve Positive Water Balance.
Rain and roof wate rharvesting structures were constructed wherever feasible.
Community water projects were initiated, and comprehensive watershed
management programmes in partnership with TERI(The Energy Resources
Institute) in diverse and challenging geographic locations werestarted. Next on the
agenda was the untapped potential for significant water reductionsthrough
interventions in agriculture .
Community Projects
Providing water to surrounding communities has been another key focus area for
Pepsi CoIndia plants in Neelamangala in Karnataka, Palakkad in Kerala, and
Sangareddy andMamandur in Tamil Nadu. Due to acute water scarcity in these
villages, thousands ofvillagers had to walk a distance of 1 to 2 kms each way to
collect water. With Pepsi CoIndias support, villagers participated and actively
contributed to the construction of taps, water tanks, bore wells and submergible
pumps in their villages.
The common method of growing Paddy is by first raising a nursery and then
manuallytransplanting it to a field "puddled" with three to four inches of water. As
opposed to thiswater intensive method, the direct seeding method sows the seeds
directly in the fields. Thismethod results in a higher yield due to the higher seeding
density.
Over the last three years, Pepsi Co India has conducted trials of various paddy
varieties in farmers fields to validate the technology. A seeding machine which can
sow paddy seedsat a specified gap and at a uniform depth has also been developed.
Repeated direct seeding methodology trials have demonstrated water savings of
30% (2.25 million litres/hectare). A large-scale implementation of this initiative has
the potential to achieve huge water savings.Pepsi Co India is working to share the
results of the direct seeding trials with more farmers. This direct seeding method is
being extended to 1000 acres in 2008.
TERI-Pepsi Co India project in Karnataka and Uttaranchal
In 2004, Pepsi Co India partnered with The Energy and Resources Institute
(TERI), a scientific research organization, to study and rejuvenate local water
bodies. The aim of this project was to enhance the quality and access of water to
villagers in Neelamangala,Karnataka and around Dehradun and Mukteswar in
Uttaranchal and currently recharges 300million litres of water every year. The
results of the partnership were commendable.Currently, Pepsi Co India s
community project in Karnataka provides water, health andsanitation services to
3,000 people residing in 4 villages.
Pepsi Co India was a pioneer in the concept of contract farming under which
thecompany transfers agricultural best practices and technology and procures the
produceat a guaranteed price. To support the initiative, Pepsi Co India set up a 27-
acreresearch and demonstration farm in Punjab to conduct farm trials of new
varieties oftomato, potato and other crops.
1. several varieties of basmati rice more than 200 varieties and hybrids
of chilli
2. 25 varieties and hybrids of corn
3. more than 60 varieties of peanut
4. more than 100 varieties and hybrids of tomato
Additionally, the development of new tomato varieties has helped increase
totalannual production of tomato varieties from 28,000 tons to over 200,000 tons
inPunjab. Yields have more than tripled from 16 tons to 54 tons per hectare. Under
theprogramme, 6 high-quality, high-yield potato varieties have also been
introduced toIndian farmers. These new potato seeds have helped to increase farm
income andenabled Pepsi Co India to procure world class chip-grade potatoes for
its Frito Laysnacks division. The company has partnered with more than 10,000
farmers workingin over 10,000 acres across Punjab, U.P., Karnataka, Jharkand
West Bengal, Kashmirand Maharashtra for the supply of potatoes. Pepsi Co India
has also partnered with1,200 farmers in Rajasthan to cultivate barley in a tie up
with the United Breweries Group. Pepsi Co Indias technical team also
implemented a high quality seedprogramme to deliver early generation and disease
free seeds to farmers
Healthy Kids
Pepsi Co India stays committed to the health and well-being of children. It will
continue to provide children with a, diverse, healthful and fun portfolio while
simultaneously tackling the calories out side of the equation by expanding its Get
Active programme for kids. Pepsi Co India believes that in order to build its
business in a sustainable manner, it has a responsibility to ensure that its consumers
are nourished in multiple dimensions. Pepsi Co India has been proactive in taking a
variety of steps to sustain and strengthen this platform of human sustainability.
CSR Partners
TERI was established in 1974 with the purpose of tackling and dealing with the
immense and acute problems that mankind is likely to be faced with in the years
ahead on account ofthe gradual depletion of the earths finite energy resources
which are largely non-renewableand on account of the existing methods of their
use which are polluting.
Over the years the Institute has developed a wider interpretation of this core
purpose andits application and has created an environment that is enabling for the
development ofsolutions to global problems in the fields of energy, environment
and current patterns ofdevelopment, which are largely unsustainable. The Institute
has grown substantially over theyears, particularly, since it launched its own
research activities and established a base in NewDelhi, its registered headquarters.
The central element of TERIs philosophy has been itsreliance on entrepreneurial
skills to create benefits for society through the development anddissemination of
intellectual property. The strength of the Institute lies in not only identifyingand
articulating intellectual challenges straddling a number of disciplines of knowledge
butalso in mounting research, training and demonstration projects leading to
development ofspecific problem-based advanced technologies that help carry
benefits to society at large.
