Wouldn’t You Like to be a Pepper Too?

Posted on | April 27, 2009 | No Comments

McDonald’s has just given the folks at Dr. Pepper Snapple an early Christmas present.  McDonald’s just announced that they were sacking Mr. Pibb Xtra for Dr. Pepper.  So, why do you care?

Because McDonald’s has 14,000 restaurants in the U.S. and Dr. Pepper Snapple will now be in all of them.  Previously, Dr. Pepper was sold in only 8,500 stores, so they’ll likely need to staff up to service an additional 5,500 stores.  That means somebody’s got to manage that expansion, deliver those drinks, stock shelves, load and drive trucks, manage inventories–you get the picture.

Dr. Pepper’s not the only one getting a boost in the land of Ronald.  Coca-Cola, whose Mr. Pibb lost to Dr. Pepper, is getting a consolation prize–McDonald’s is expanding its selection of Coke products too, adding VitaminWater, Powerade and Coke Zero, Diet Coke, Sprite, Hi-C, Minute Maid, Fanta and Barq’s Root Beer.  That means Coca-Cola will also be needing a few extra hands and minds.
