The number of years and financial terms were not disclosed, but founding partner deals at the major league level are valued at seven figures annually. PepsiCo will be the official and exclusive non-alcoholic beverage and snack provider for the 49ers when the new facility opens in August '14, and it will brand the North fan deck in the upper deck spanning the length of the end zone. PepsiCo starting this season receives exclusive marketing rights for the 49ers, including mobile, TV and digital assets and local media and retail opportunities. The deal covers all PepsiCo brands, including Pepsi, Quaker, Gatorade and Tropicana.
