Indra Nooyi, PepsiCo's CEO of 12 years, is to step down as the head of the world's second-largest food and beverage company.
Ms Nooyi, who was born in India, is a rarity on Wall Street as a woman leading a Fortune 500 company.
After stepping down in October, Ms Nooyi will be be replaced by Ramon Laguarta. Ms Nooyi has been with PepsiCo for 24 years, and will remain as chairman until early 2019.
"Today is a day of mixed emotions for me," Ms Nooyi tweeted Monday morning. "PepsiCo has been my life for 24 years & part of my heart will always remain here."
The 62-year-old called leading the company "the honour of my lifetime," adding: "Growing up in India, I never imagined I’d have the opportunity to lead an extraordinary company like PepsiCo."
She also threw her support behind Mr Laguarta, calling him "a critical partner and friend" and "exactly the right person" to fill her shoes.
