Description: KDP Keurig Dr Pepper

Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. (KDP) is a major North American beverage company that owns, manufactures, and distributes branded beverages and single-serve brewing systems across the United States and internationally. The company operates through three segments: U.S. Refreshment Beverages, U.S. Coffee, and International. Its portfolio spans concentrates, syrups, and finished beverages, as well as K-Cup pods, single-serve brewers, specialty coffee, and ready-to-drink coffee products.

KDP markets an extensive brand portfolio including Dr Pepper, Canada Dry, Motts, Snapple, 7UP, Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Hawaiian Punch, Sunkist, Squirt, Vita Coco, Evian, Folgers, Celestial Seasonings, Bigelow, Swiss Miss, and licensed partner brands such as Starbucks, Dunkin, Tim Hortons, and Peets. Products are sold through supermarkets, mass merchandisers, club stores, e-commerce retailers, office superstores, vending machines, convenience stores, and directly to consumers via Keurig.com. The company was founded in 1981 and is headquartered in Frisco, Texas.

Operating in the Consumer Staples sector (Soft Drinks & Non-alcoholic Beverages), KDP benefits from the typically defensive, recession-resistant demand profile characteristic of essential consumer goods. Its business model combines a razor-and-blade structure-where Keurig brewers drive recurring sales of higher-margin K-Cup pods-with a diversified portfolio of owned and licensed beverage brands across multiple price points and categories.
