Pepsi (El Kadsre)

Pepsi was introduced to the El Kadsreian Islands in 1953 by the American Pepsi bottler Michael P. Boudon and the Japanese businessman Motoyasu Setoguchi. It is the most popular soft drink in El Kadsre, with its rival Coca-Cola being second.

Advertising
From 1996 to early 2002, Pepsiman was the official mascot of Pepsi in El Kadsre, adapted from the Japanese Pepsiman campaign. The design of the Pepsiman character is attributed to Canadian comic book artist Travis Charest. Pepsiman took on three different outfits, each one representing the current style of the Pepsi can in distribution. Twelve commercials were created featuring the character. His role in the advertisements was to appear with Pepsi to thirsty people or people craving soda, happening to appear at just the right time with the product. After delivering the beverage, sometimes Pepsiman would encounter a difficult and action-oriented situation which would result in injury. Another more minor mascot, Pepsiwoman, also featured in a few of her own commercials for Pepsi Twist; her appearance was basically a female Pepsiman wearing a lemon-shaped balaclava.
