>>Economies of scale are powerful.

A lot of companies dealing with products like these spend insane money on advertising, marketing and other mechanisms to sell their product. I think Pepsi can sell their drink at 1/10th price if they dropped the ads, sponsorships, marketing etc.

And not to mention. People themselves perceive cheaper products as that of low quality.
