They purchase most of their plastic from waste pickers at landfill (dump) sites in the local community. Waverly Plastics manufactures a range of plastic products locally, including recycled HDPE. The company participates in the Clean Up Zimbabwe Initiative.

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.
