Pepsi Bottling Ventures LLC

Pepsi Bottling Ventures LLC supplies branded beverages—carbonated sodas, sports drinks, juices, and ready-to-drink teas—to the Defense Logistics Agency Troop Support Subsistence division and the Defense Commissary Agency as a prime contractor on single-award indefinite delivery contracts and delivery orders, competing full-and-open with no set-aside designation. The company is a for-profit limited liability company, a subsidiary of the minority-owned Pepsi-Cola And National Brand Beverages, LTD., and operates from Salisbury, Maryland.

Pepsi Bottling Ventures LLC holds three active single-award IDCs with DLA Troop Support Subsistence, each valued at $4.9 million, awarded in February 2024, February 2025, and September 2025 with completion dates running through 2029–2030. Against these vehicles, the company executes frequent delivery orders and blanket purchase agreement calls—individual awards typically ranging from $29 to $2,100 in ceiling value—for products including Pepsi-Cola, Mountain Dew, Dr Pepper, Gatorade, 7UP, and Tropicana juices in multiple formats (20-ounce plastic bottles in cases of 24, 5-gallon bag-in-box containers, 3-gallon concentrate jugs, and carbon dioxide cylinders). Representative awards include a $1,441.60 BPA call in November 2025 for sweet lemonade delivery, a $1,332.30 BPA call in December 2025 for carbonated cola beverages, and a $2,131.10 BPA call in March 2026 for multiple branded beverage products. All delivery orders are issued as firm fixed-price contracts without set-aside designation.

Customer concentration is stark: the Defense Commissary Agency accounts for 41 awards totaling $102.3 million in combined potential value (approximately 71% of all potential value), while DLA Troop Support Subsistence drives volume with 1,182 awards valued at $31.5 million (approximately 22% of combined potential value). The two agencies together represent 100% of the award count in the source data. The top five parent vehicles are older DLA IDCs and a blanket purchase agreement dating to the 2010s–2020s era; the three most recent $4.9 million IDC awards (February 2024, February 2025, September 2025) anchor current activity.

Activity has declined from a peak of 113 awards in 2022 to 64 in 2023, recovered partially to 70–72 in 2024–2025, and has dropped to 26 through April 2026. The combined potential value across all 1,228 prime awards is $143.8 million, though only $2.5 million (2%) has been obligated to date, reflecting the indefinite-delivery structure with multiple small delivery orders over time. Pepsi Bottling Ventures LLC executes as the prime contractor on all work with no identified subcontractors. Primary NAICS coding reflects soft drink manufacturing and beverages-focused work, with the majority of awards falling under PSC coffee, tea, cocoa and nonalcoholic beverages categories.
