Kenya: Zameer Noorali: Entrepreneur turns garbage into source of income

Kenya: Zameer Noorali: Entrepreneur turns garbage into source of incomeTaka Kenya offers an integrated waste management solution since it collects solid waste, sorts it into various groups (paper, plastic, glass, metal, food) and sells the product forward to a recycler such that eventually zero per cent of the country’s waste will arrive at a landfill or dumpsite.

The first time that Tanzanian-born Zameer Noorali, executive director of Taka Kenya, thought about the waste management industry was as a member of the humanitarian coordination team of the US Navy.

The American Navy has a strict policy of collecting the waste they produce at each location and not burning it on site.
