PepsiCo marked the end of Hispanic Heritage Month on Thursday with a long-term commitment to Hispanic Americans with an investment to facilitate change in three main pillars: people, business and communities.

PepsiCo’s $170 million plan will tackle a range of obstacles faced by Hispanic communities, including access to higher education and a lack of managerial representation in the workforce.

Over the next five years, the company has pledged a variety of initiatives, which span from building relationships with Hispanic-owned suppliers to expanding its Food for Good program, as well as providing jobs and food security to families in need.
