Bamboo Labs produces bamboo wheelchairs and bicycles for the local market. Bamboo Labs capitalises on the huge supply of bamboo in Ethiopia. They also have plans to produce bamboo bike frames for export.

This case study has been created as part of Footprints Africa's work to build a comprehensive open-source database of circular economy initiatives in Africa. We are doing this in collaboration with the African Circular Economy Network (ACEN), as part of our programme to support the circular economy transition in Africa.
