Guide transition from waste collectors to wastepreneurs
Overview
Our project is dedicated to empowering the establishment of micro-businesses in Kenya focused on transforming collected plastic waste into valuable products.
We aim to create a sustainable business ecosystem where plastic waste is not just disposed of but repurposed into new products. This initiative seeks to provide economic opportunities for local communities while addressing the growing plastic waste crisis by fostering innovation and entrepreneurship in the recycling industry.

Our effort
To bring this vision to life, our team is working closely with local communities, entrepreneurs, and environmental organizations to develop a comprehensive support system for micro-businesses.
We are providing training, resources, and access to the necessary machinery for producing high-quality products from plastic waste. Additionally, we are establishing partnerships with buyers and distributors to create a robust market for these products. By promoting the circular economy, we are helping micro-entrepreneurs turn waste into wealth, contributing to both economic growth and environmental sustainability in Kenya.
The Result
The result of our efforts will be a network of thriving micro-businesses across Kenya, each contributing to a cleaner environment and a stronger economy. These businesses will produce a variety of products, from building materials to everyday items, all made from recycled plastic waste.
We aim to create a scalable, sustainable approach to waste management that empowers communities and fosters long-term economic development. This project will not only reduce plastic pollution but also create jobs and promote entrepreneurship in Kenya.
