CORPORATE REPORT: PEPSI REPORTS GROWTH; MILLER'S AD AGENCIES
Published February 3, 1995
PEPSI: According to Pepsi-Cola, the company posted its best
volume growth since '88. Total company U.S. case sales jumped
6.2% in '94. Pepsi says its carbonated soft drink sales
increased 4.4%, compared to 3.5% for the overall soft drink
industry. The company also notes that All-Sport became the
second best-selling sports beverage and credits that to its
partnership with the NCAA and its national ad campaign that
features Shaquille O'Neal (Pepsi).

made changes in its ad agency roster. Dean Scaros, CEO at Acaros
& Casselman Advertising said his agency has been hired by Miller
to handle several new-product assignments for which the total

said Scaros & Casselman would work on projects like Citro, a beer
with a slight lime flavor that was introduced in May (N.Y. TIMES,
