VINITA, Okla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Today American Heartland Theme Park and Resort, the $2.2 billion entertainment destination, is proud to announce that PepsiCo will be its exclusive soft drink provider. The partnership will bring PepsiCo's iconic brands, such as Pepsi, Mountain Dew, Gatorade, and Aquafina, to the 1,000-acre resort that will feature a world-class theme park, an indoor water park, a 300-room hotel, and a 320-acre RV park.

PepsiCo was founded in 1965 with the merger of the Pepsi-Cola Company and Frito-Lay, Inc., but its roots go back to 1893, when pharmacist Caleb Bradham created Pepsi-Cola in his drugstore in New Bern, North Carolina. Since then, PepsiCo has grown to become one of the largest food and beverage companies in the world, with products available in more than 200 countries.
American Heartland Theme Park and Resort is expected to attract more than 5 million guests per year to Oklahoma, creating generational experiences that are at the heart and soul of family entertainment.
