In conclusion CSR analysis of the competition of Pepsico was also conducted and it was concluded
that today Companies practicing Corporate Social Responsibility need not be altruistic to be
effective. The companies like PepsiCo and Coca-Cola invest in projects like water treatment facilities
and a zero waste footprint for their products because it helps them reduce their resource use, which
in turn helps them become sustainable and achieve higher profits The firm of the future is expected
to have undergone significant transformation such that CSR no longer becomes managed as a
separate deliverable, but is part of the experience of being an employee in an organization that lives
its values.

: In today's business world, many businesses are facing increased pressure from their competitors,
shareholders and surrounding environments than before. As a result, organizations that wish to
continue in operation have to adopt different strategies for its long-term sustainability whiles
maximizing shareholders’ value. However, corporate social and ethical responsibilities have become
a superior expectation rather than a differentiation strategy to gain organizational legitimacy (Bruhn-
Hansen, 2012). Therefore, this study critically examines the corporate strategy, governance and
ethical practices of a very successful global organization PepsiCo Inc. and how it has been
successfully managed in today's global business environment. In this regard, Porter’s five forces and
SWOT analysis were used as the major analytical tools for the study. The main source of data used
was secondary data which focused on information from books, the Internet, and articles from
scholarly journals. The study has revealed that, the company over depend on its domestic market
especially in North American countries in marketing and selling of its products. Based on the
findings, PepsiCo Inc. needs a more comprehensive ethical policies to ensure the production of a
healthier and safer products, and must also not fail to consider sociocultural factors in the context of
its operations especially in its advertisement. The study concluded with the view that PepsiCo must
improve upon its CSR, corporate strategy, ethics and corporate governance policies in order to
produce outcomes which will satisfy stakeholders’ interest positively

Abstract
Community involvement programs occupy centre-stage in the portfolio of many
corporations who display and report upon their socially responsible performance.
Focusing mainly on issues such as charity and employee volunteering,
corporations remain fairly vague in reporting on the way they translate community
involvement policies into concrete actions and on the social impact of their
community programs. Based on first-hand observations and on-site ethnographic
accounts, this study seeks to enrich extant understandings of the character and
consequences of corporate involvement in communities. The study follows the
diffusion of Coca-Cola’s global branding strategy and the community involvement
program it recommended to the Israeli franchisee and analyzes its design and
execution on the ground. The study finds a considerable gap between rhetoric of
community involvement and practices of mobilizing the community to further the
company’s ends. On a theoretical level, the study shows that community
programs function as material performances of present-day capitalist ideology
As is previously discussed in CSR research, one important benefit from CSR activities is to build up
strong brand reputation and favorable brand image and increase the brand value of the company.
However, there is little empirical evidence to support this claimed benefit. In this paper, we
empirically test whether and which type of CSR activities influence the brand value of multinational
corporations (MNCs) by collecting data from Inter brand, Bloomberg, and Advertising Age. We find
partial evidence that CSR activities help create brand value for the MNCs. However, not all CSR
activities are effective. For example, all CSR activities in the governance domain show a significant
effect while any activities in the environmental domain do not have a significant impact. On the
other hand, substantive CSR activities effectively increase the brand value of the firm while
perfunctory actions do not have significant impact.
