Ouroots Africa provides sustainable natural alternatives to single use plastic that are 100 % biodegradable and compostable like drinking straws, cutlery while reducing the 85 % unemployment rate by supporting and employing rural women farmers.
Ouroots Africa is a social enterprise working on making the world a better place by providing natural and sustainable alternatives to single use plastics. We are tackling the plastic challenge from the root of the problem: production. All our products are grown from local plants, harvested and crafted by local women farmers and compostable.
Our inspiration lies in the past as well as in the future – by coming back to the natural products our grandparents used, we can provide a brighter and cleaner future for our children. That’s why we go back to the roots by simply growing products and creating new cash crops for economic growth .
