(Reuters) -The U.S. Federal Trade Commission sued PepsiCo on Friday for offering preferential pricing to a large retailer, whom a source familiar with the matter confirmed was Walmart.

"PepsiCo strongly disputes the FTC's allegations, and the partisan manner in which the suit was filed," the company said in a statement.
