As of this writing, Pepsi was priced at $54.82 while Pepsi Bottling Group's last bid was $33.71.

    Why Is Pepsico Buying Its Bottlers?

    PepsiCo (PEP) announced over the weekend that it has offered about $6 billion to complete its stakes in its two largest bottlers, Pepsi Bottling Group (PBG), of which it already owns 33%, and PepsiAmericas (PAS), of which it already owns 43%.
