I worked at Pepsi at the tail end of Kendall's reign. From what I know as fact it was clear that he took a company that was on-again, off-again when it came to sales and profits. He was the one who built the the Pepsi-Frito foundation that would allow Pepsi to weather business environment storms that seem to follow the Pepsi brand. At the time Pepsi was a one beverage company...... he moved to Diet Pepsi and Mountain Dew. So if you look at the strict definition, starting something from nothing, Kendall is not the best example but he did see opportunity and had the balls to pull the trigger.
Caleb Bradham first invented Pepsi as "Brad's Drink" in 1898. PepsiCo was formed in 1965 through the merger of Pepsi-Cola and Frito Lay. Donald M. Kendall and Herman W. Lay are considered the co-founders of PepsiCo.

Extract from the Pepsico history website. PepsiCo, Inc. is founded by Donald M. Kendall, President and Chief Executive Officer of Pepsi-Cola and Herman W. Lay, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Frito-Lay, through the merger of the two companies. Pepsi-Cola was created in the late 1890s by Caleb Bradham, a New Bern, N.C. pharmacist. Frito-Lay, Inc. was formed by the 1961 merger of the Frito Company, founded by Elmer Doolin in 1932, and the H. W. Lay Company, founded by Herman W.Lay, also in 1932.
