Pepsi China marketing director departs

SHANGHAI - PepsiCo China marketing director Chris Pan has stepped down from his role.

Pan departs the FMCG giant after a recent management reshuffle, which saw former Universal Music SEA president Harry Hui appointed to the role of vice-president, marketing.

His predecessor, Richard Lee, is shifting to PepsiCo’s US operation in May. According to Pan, who has been based in China for 18 months, he plans to spend time focussing on companies which are seeking to reach and impact urban youth in China.
