COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPE
Traditional brand Quaker focuses on new consumers to maintain leadership
PepsiCo’s Quaker brand lead breakfast cereals in 2025 thanks to a powerful combination of trusted products, strategic innovation and alignment with consumer needs. This leadership stems primarily from Quaker’s outsized presence in the fast-growing hot cereals segment and an expanding portfolio of granolas and other better-for-you cereals.
PepsiCo invests in marketing and sustainability
On the marketing front, PepsiCo invested in campaigns to modernise Quaker’s image and emphasise its health benefits to contemporary consumers. The company tapped into digital media and in-store promotions to remind Brazilians that Quaker stands for alimentação saudável e nutritiva (healthy, nutritious eating), positioning its oats, granolas, and other cereals as ideal for balanced breakfasts and snacks.
