(Reuters) -Beverage maker Keurig Dr Pepper ( KDP ) on Tuesday appointed Anthony DiSilvestro as the company's chief financial officer, effective immediately, replacing outgoing CFO Sudhanshu Priyadarshi.

DiSilvestro left as finance chief of toymaker Mattel ( MAT ) in May 2025, after joining the company in 2020. He previously served as CFO at Campbell Soup Co from 2014 to 2019.

George Lagoudakis will take on the role of deputy CFO, the soft drinks maker said.

The company last month lifted its forecast for annual sales.

Keurig Dr Pepper ( KDP ) had announced the acquisition of JDE Peet's for about $18 billion in August, along with plans to split the merged entity's coffee operations and other beverage businesses, including Dr Pepper sodas, into two publicly traded companies.
