We make recycling accessible and rewarding in low- to middle-income communities through innovative, community-rooted solutions: ♻️ REACT - Decentralised Recycling Hubs Decentralised recycling community hubs that provide free household recycling collections, operated in partnership with trained informal waste reclaimers. 💚 Remali - Recycling Rewards Currency A virtual currency that rewards residents for recycling and can be redeemed for essentials like groceries, transport, airtime and electricity. 🌿 Zero Waste Spaza (ZWS) A network of refill and reuse micro-retailers helping households reduce packaging waste and save money.

Each hub creates local employment, boosts recycling participation and reduces carbon emissions through fossil-fuel-free operations and transparent material tracking. Our mission: To build an accessible, community-led and regenerative waste ecosystem that enables people and the planet to thrive. Our vision: To become Africa’s leading circular economy platform - transforming how waste is collected, processed and valued.
