About Me

India's cola king, Ravi Jaipuria, presides over RJ Corp. which is into everything from beverages and fast food to healthcare and education. His listed flagship Varun Beverages is one of PepsiCo's biggest bottlers outside the U.S. The youngest of three brothers, Jaipuria studied in the U.S. and returned home in 1985 to join the family business as a bottler for Coca-Cola. After a family division in 1987, in which he got one bottling plant as his share, he switched to PepsiCo. His Devyani International, which operates KFC, Pizza Hut and Costa Coffee stores, which got listed in 2021, agreed to merge with rival Sapphire Foods in a $934 million deal in January 2026, creating a fast food giant.
