Costco Begins Switch From Pepsi to Coca-Cola at Food Courts
UNITED STATES, JUL 22 – Costco is switching back to Coca-Cola to maintain the $1.50 hot dog-soda combo price, with a global rollout across 14 countries expected by fall 2025.
- Costco began switching its food court beverage provider from Pepsi to Coca-Cola on June 30, 2025, across its locations in multiple countries.

- This switch coincides with other member benefits, including earlier shopping hours for U.S. Executive members who pay $130 annually and earn a 2% purchase reward.
