Well, that's not exactly accurate. For Pepsi to market and produce specially made labels and packages, they'd have to spend quite a bit of money to do it, whereas I'm certain that less that a weeks worth of programming was needed to make this Google clone, and it was probably volunteer. As ABF said, just for fun.
