Wecyclers is a for-profit social enterprise that promotes environmental sustainability and socioeconomic development by providing convenient recycling services in urban neighborhoods. The company allows households to generate value from their waste while supplying raw materials to the local recycling industry. Since its inception in 2012, Wecyclers has developed a rewards-for-recycling platform that incentivizes low-income communities to recycle, using a fleet of cargo bikes for collection. They have expanded their operations to include motorized vehicles, increasing their reach and efficiency in waste management. With over 60,000 beneficiaries and 20,000 households reached, Wecyclers is addressing urban waste challenges and contributing to a cleaner environment in Lagos.
