Green Republic Limited Eat. Sleep. Recycle.

Much of Nigeria doesn’t have an efficient public waste management system. Decades of this has resulted in a waste pandemic; massive environmental degradation, diseases, and a normalised dysfunctional relationship with waste. Much of the Nigeria’s waste, thought to be a huge 34 million tons a year, ends up mixed up in landfill, landscapes and waterways where pollutes and damages the surrounding area.

GreenRepublic is a digital door-to-door recycling service turning waste to wealth, by offering post consumers assorted benefits in exchange for their everyday waste, and formalising the role of waste pickers.

Green Republic is building a decentralised platform to systematically address the inefficiencies in how Africans deal with waste, and will continue to build a robust waste management value chain that unlocks opportunities trapped in waste by incorporating the formal and informal sector, from post consumers, waste pickers, drivers and aggregators to exporters and manufacturers.
