The Independent, August 15 - PepsiCo has promoted its chief financial officer, Indra Nooyi, to become chief executive of the drinks manufacturer, making her one of the most powerful women in corporate America.
Ms Nooyi, who was born in India, will take over immediately in a surprise reshuffle, cementing her position after several years in which the board has fought to keep her from leaving for a senior job elsewhere.
She replaces Steve Reinemund, who will take early retirement after five years in which he has pushed PepsiCo into new, non-carbonated drinks and won market share from the company's rival Coca-Cola. He will stay on as chairman until May.
PepsiCo becomes the largest company by market value to be run by a woman, and Ms Nooyi becomes only the fifth chief executive in its 41-year history.
