Human: History The pharmacy of Caleb Bradham, with a Pepsi dispenser. A plaque at 256 Middle Street, New Bern, NC Pepsi was first introduced as Brad's Drink in New Bern, North Carolina, United States, in 1893 by Caleb Bradham. He created it at his drugstore where the drink was sold. It was renamed Pepsi-Cola in 1898 after the Greek word for digestion, which the drink purported to aid, and cola after the kola nut. The original recipe also included sugar and vanilla. Bradham sought to create a fountain drink that was appealing and would aid in digestion and boost energy. The original stylized Pepsi-Cola wordmark used from 1898 until 1905. In 1903, Bradham moved the bottling of Pepsi-Cola from his drugstore to a rented warehouse. That year, Bradham sold 7,968 gallons of syrup. The next year, Pepsi was sold in six-ounce bottles, and sales increased to 19,848 gallons. In 1909, automobile race pioneer Barney Oldfield endorsed Pepsi-Cola as a celebrity, describing it as A bully drink...refreshing, invigorating, a fine bracer before a race. The advertising theme Delicious and Healthful was then used over the next two decades. A 1919 newspaper ad for Pepsi-Cola In 1923, the Pepsi-Cola Company entered bankruptcy due to financial losses incurred by speculating on sugar prices as a result of World War I. Assets were sold, and Roy C. Megargel bought the Pepsi trademark. Megargel was unsuccessful in efforts to find funding to revive the brand, and soon Pepsi's assets were purchased by Charles Guth, the president of Loft, Inc. On three separate occasions between 1922 and 1933, the Coca-Cola Company was offered the opportunity to purchase the Pepsi-Cola company, but it declined each time.
