Sector:
Environmental Climate Action
Country:
Senegal
Problem
We are assuming that 90% of recyclable waste left in nature has a negative impact on the environment but also on the economy of the country.
Additionally, the few companies working in the recycling sector tend to buy their recycling machines from abroad even though local engineers are qualified to make efficient machines.
Solution
A platform for recyclers to monetize their recycled materials, for companies to purchase recycled materials, for local engineers to sell recycling machines made in Senegal and above all for providing treated plastic to companies working with plastic.
Customers
Recyclers of all type of waste. Companies that use waste (e-waste, wood, plastic,...) for their production.
