Building resilience on the ground.

During our recent site visit to our ReChas, We were struck by their drive to make the most of the current market, while identifying operational gaps and talking about practical solutions to keep things moving forward.

We are also looking at the bigger picture in Beaufort West. By establishing frameworks, We are ensuring that local micro-entrepreneurs aren’t just "getting by," but are fully equipped to thrive.

The mission: Turning Waste into Livelihoods and challenges into blueprints for success.

In an interactive session at the africa_forward Summit titled “Future Focus on the Youth” Project Lead, Zachariah Thomas shared and presented how is empowering youth through recycling and technology. By training young people to run micro-recycling enterprises, ReCha is creating real economic opportunities while tackling waste in communities across South Africa. The PechaKucha-style talk, followed by informal interactions, sparked engaging discussions on youth-led innovation and sustainable impact.

We hosted our very first Fireside Chat last week, and followed it up with another inspiring session today.

Our guest speakers shared practical and relatable insights to help ReCha owners reframe their approach to money and take meaningful steps toward building financially sustainable businesses.

These gatherings spark valuable conversations, and also create opportunities for ReCha owners across regions to connect and learn from one another. It is always so refreshing to see our ReCha owners share real and authentic stories of their journeys.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to making this experience impactful. Together, we are shaping change♻️

We were honoured to host our partners, UNICEF South Africa, for a field visit with our ReCha Entrepreneurs in Beaufort West, who have been actively operational for the past 2 months.

These entrepreneurs are already turning waste into opportunity, creating impact in their communities while building sustainable livelihoods.

A big thank you to UNICEF South Africa for walking this journey with us as we grow local champions in recycling and the circular economy.

Our session in Beaufort West brought together an energetic group of micro-entrepreneurs who are running their own recycling buy-back centres. ♻️

The engagement became more than just a meet up, It was a support circle where ideas flowed, challenges were unpacked, and creativity thrived. Together, we explored how to maximise their value proposition, co-designed and co-created innovative solutions, and shared practical financial growth tips that can help sustain their businesses for the long run.

What stood out most was the shared vision: transforming waste into livelihoods, and recycling into a pathway for community resilience and opportunity.

Beaufort West, Day 1 ♻️

What an inspiring first day on the ground!

Our team had the privilege of Introducing version 3 of our Tech with out micro-buyback centres and Aggregator in Beaufort West, bringing recycling solutions closer to the community.

From the energy of our local team to the enthusiasm of community members engaging with the model. Today was a clear reminder of why we exist: turning innovative ideas into real, scalable and meaningful impact.

This is only the beginning of our Beaufort West journey, and we’re excited to build on this momentum as we continue to unlock opportunities through waste, innovation, and community collaboration.

The team out in Bloemfontein is creating real change on the ground. With six active Recha sites and bi-weekly pickups, we’re seeing strong participation from the community and consistent waste recovery efforts.

Each week, more than 5000 kilograms of waste are collected and taken to Buy Back Centres, a clear sign that when people come together, progress follows.

We kicked off a ReCha workshop in Alexandra today, diving deep with local teams to better understand their journeys, challenges, and what’s needed.

From pricing strategies and navigating nearby buy-back centres, the insights shared were powerful and honest, exactly what we need to build something that works with the community.

We are heading to Jabulani next, continuing the momentum with more workshops as we prepare the broader Gauteng team for masterclasses.
