About Us
Cleaning The Gambia. Empowering people.
In The Gambia, plastic pollution poses a growing threat to public health, ecosystems, and livelihoods. The burning of plastic waste contributes to harmful air pollution and health risks, while plastic waste contaminates rivers and mangroves that support the country’s rich biodiversity. At the same time, plastic pollution threatens the fisheries and tourism sectors, which are vital to the country’s economy and the livelihoods of many communities.
With all our heart and soul, we are building the leading plastic recycling company in The Gambia. What began as a dream to make our country cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable has grown into a nationwide network providing economic opportunity and preventing pollution across communities.
