Our mission is to structure and industrialize plastic waste recycling in Africa, while prioritizing the empowerment of women and leveraging mobile technologies to drive sustainable change.

By ensuring fair compensation for the materials collected, we are not only enhancing recycling programs but also creating green jobs that contribute to reducing plastic pollution.
