PepsiCo Tests Digital Twins To Optimize Plants

PepsiCo is piloting AI-driven digital twin technology with Nvidia and Siemens, announced in a Jan. 6, 2026 press release, to create high-fidelity 3D replicas of U.S. plants and warehouses for simulation and layout optimization. The multi-year collaboration uses Siemens Digital Twin Composer on Nvidia's Omniverse and reportedly identifies up to 90% of design issues, improves throughput about 20%, and reduces capital expenditures up to 15%. PepsiCo plans U.S. rollout this year with global expansion in 2027.
