The decision by PepsiCo to sell its Tropicana, Naked, and other juice brands to a French private equity firm will not impact the company's significant operations in Cork.

It was announced last week that the food and beverage giant was selling the brands to PAI Partners for €2.8bn as it seeks to bolster its balance sheet and focus on healthier snacks and zero-calorie drinks.
