KFC in the US will switch its beverage partnership from PepsiCo to The Coca-Cola Company starting in January 2027, ending a four-decade relationship with Pepsi, the fast-food chain announced on Oct. 15 local time.

Coca-Cola products are expected to be available at all KFC restaurants across the US by spring 2027.

Catherine Tan-Gillespie, president of KFC US, said the decision was a key step in the chain's "comeback" strategy.

She added that Pepsi remains an important partner for KFC's parent company and its international markets.

KFC restaurants in the US have served Pepsi beverages since 1986, when PepsiCo acquired the fast-food chain.

Opinion | Behind the double 'World's No. 1': How world-class hospitality is forging a new chapter for HK tourism

Opinion | Behind the double 'World's No. 1': How world-class hospitality is forging a new chapter for HK tourism Bar Leone in Central, Hong Kong, was crowned the world's best bar for the second consecutive year. Barely three weeks earlier, Rosewood Hong Kong likewise retained its No. 1 ranking, becoming the only hotel to successfully defend the title since the list was founded. Bars and hotels are two mirrors of the hospitality industry. That both "world's best" titles have fallen to Hong Kong in the same year is no coincidence—it is an objective affirmation by international professional juries of the city's service standards and business environment.

Opinion | Here's what Trump's Russian diesel ploy is all about US President Donald Trump has provoked outrage by announcing a plan to import diesel from the Russian Federation. The plan, widely condemned by allies and other American politicians, is a slap in the face to the massive sanctions imposed on Moscow by Washington following its invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Opinion | Nobel Peace Prize—Denied twice, will Trump start another war? Once again, Trump the warmonger, misses out on the Nobel Peace Prize. That leaves him hopping mad. He calls the decision to give the award to Navi Pillay, a former UN human rights chief "disgraceful and embarrassing". I shudder to think what Trump will do next year when the big bad bully is denied his coveted prize a third time. Will he go berserk, and start another war just to spite Norway? With Trump, nothing is too far-fetched.
