SERP Recyclage is a private waste management company based in Casablanca. SERP Recyclage operates as an outsourcing company that works with municipalities and major companies all over Morocco, offering waste collection and sorting resources.
Waste management in Morocco is heavily reliant on the informal sector, especially when it comes to collection. This leads to inefficiencies and puts informal waste pickers in hazardous working conditions.
SERP has two major facilities for waste sorting in Mohammédia and Casablanca, as well as 11 trucks for waste collection. The premise of the company is that their outsourcing services improve the efficiency of waste sorting and recycling systems, making it easier for companies and municipalities to comply with sustainable practices. The main outcome of their recycling systems is the production of construction bricks.
In addition, the CEO of SERP Recyclage is also the President of the Fédération des Recycleurs, Collecteurs et Chineurs Au Maroc, a federation of associations that agglutinates waste collectors and recyclers in Morocco. Its aim is to channel the demands of the sector and its workers to the administration, advocating for a higher professionalization and better working conditions for waste collectors, a job that is frequently associated to accidents and labor instability. SERP Recyclage also carries out awareness campaigns on waste recycling aimed at promoting sustainable practices on Moroccan citizens.
This company conducts outsourcing services both for private corporations, such as Marjane, McDonalds, or Sheraton, and public institutions, such as municipal governments.
