A report
Forget cola war, PepsiCo now wants to battle it out in the Rs 11,000-crore Indian biscuits market that is getting chock-a-block with new entrants. The American food and beverages maker, which launched Aliva baked crackers in 2009, will start test-marketing oats-based premium cookies under its Quaker brand next month, two officials directly involved with the development said.

PepsiCo India is among a slew of domestic and international companies rushing to the fastest-growing processed food segment in the country, growing 20% a year, faster than noodles and potato chips. “The category will explode this decade,” says Nikhil Sen, biscuits industry veteran and MD of Bangalore-based biscuit maker Unibic India. American major Kraft Foods is expected to kick off its India foray with biscuits some time this year.
