Our team designed the solar powered cart to empower local entrepreneurs in economically disadvantaged areas bringing cold PepsiCo beverages and food products to remote corners of the world where there is no reliable power grid.
The mobile carts also offer “light at night,” and electrical charging stations – all powered by solar energy - encouraging additional community engagement and benefit.
In line with PepsiCo’s commitment to not only “environmental sustainability” but also “human sustainability”, the vending carts were designed to meet local fabrication capabilities using readily available materials and resources with a focus on: usability, safety, functionality and aesthetics.
(Shown are 2 carts, the first was the testing model for Pakistan and the rendering is the cart used in the US for various activation's).
