Later generations would be familiar with the highly renowned Pepsi-Cola, but at this time it was not yet very famous; such an acquisition in Virginia didn't even make the news.

Although the task of acquiring Pepsi-Cola Beverage Company was completed, Frank did not rush to leave, but instead announced in a high profile manner that he would invest 1 million dollars in Pepsi-Cola as its controlling shareholder.
