PepsiCo Greenhouse Program: Sustainable APAC Supply Chains
PepsiCo has released the latest edition of its Greenhouse Program (PGP) in Asia Pacific (APAC).
The aim of the 2026 IMPACT Edition is to help scale proven sustainability solutions in start-ups into the company’s day-to-day APAC operations, with the potential to globally expand.
Together, the 2026 group aims to bring together logistic efficiency, sustainable agriculture, emissions reduction and a circular economy.
Agricultural and supply chain footprints
PepsiCo, a food and drinks company, works with a large agricultural and supply chain footprint, due to the scale of its operations.
To change this, the company is working to cut emissions across farming, manufacturing and logistics, in order to help build climate resilience and advance sustainable packaging goals.
The programme is part of PepsiCo Positive’s (pep+), aim to put sustainability at the center of the business.
According to PepsiCo, “Some of the most promising sustainability technologies are coming from startups but taking them beyond early trials requires access to operations, the right internal support and a clear route to adoption.“
The PGP brings together innovators with PepsiCo teams and partners to test, validate and implement solutions, in order to deliver measurable impact.
“In Asia Pacific, the next wave of competitive advantage will come from how quickly we can turn practical innovation into scaled commercial outcomes,” says Anne Tse, Chief Executive Officer, Asia Pacific, PepsiCo.
“Our priority is to focus on solutions that strengthen resilience in our value chain, accelerate execution in the market and advance pep+ in ways that are measurable for both our business and our partners.
“This edition of the PGP reflects a deliberate shift from exploring ideas broadly to backing the solutions most capable of creating strategic advantage across the region.”
What’s new in 2026?
The PGP is entering its fourth year in APAC and so far, has been supported by more than 22 pilots with more than 30 startups.
Sustainability leaders won’t want to miss Sustainability LIVE: The Leadership Summit at London Climate Action Week, taking place at Code Node on 25 June 2026.

Agriculture, climate resilience and sustainable packaging
This year, the cohort involves five alumni that have been selected for their ability to fit into PepsiCo’s sustainable priorities across circular packaging, climate resilience and agriculture.
These are:
- Adiona (Australia, 2023 alumni): An AI-powered logistics optimisation platform improving route planning and fleet efficiency with potential to reduce Scope 3 emissions across bottler networks.
- Bali Waste Cycle (Indonesia, 2025 alumni): Decentralised waste processing model enabling the recovery of low-value plastics, supporting Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) readiness and strengthening recycling supply chains.
- Beijing AIForce Tech (China, 2025 alumni): Electric agricultural machinery that automates key farming processes, enabling reductions in emissions and labor dependency while improving productivity for growers.
- Takachar (Thailand, 2024 alumni): Biochar technology that converts crop residues into a soil-enhancing material, helping reduce open burning and support carbon sequestration across agricultural supply chains.
- X-Centric (Australia, 2024 alumni): Digital soil analytics platform enabling more precise soil health measurement, helping optimise inputs. This has the potential to support PepsiCo’s regenerative agriculture and Scope 3 ambitions.
The programme will culminate in a regional showcase in October, where startups will share progress and explore further commercial opportunities.
