PepsiCo's senior vice president and chief commercial officer for AMESA, Jagrut Kotecha, is a leading candidate to head the company's India operations. Kotecha's extensive experience in PepsiCo's snacks business is considered advantageous as the company focuses on strengthening its snacking segment in India. The initial expectation of George Kovoor taking over the role is reconsidered due to the competitive challenges in the snacks business.
