Mr. Green Africa

Mr. Green Africa Mr. Green Africa trades recycled materials with a tangible social and environmental impact. Trading Points: https://linktr.ee/mrgreenafricakenya

In a visit to Kenya in 2012, Mr. Green Trading Founders, came to Kenya to explore
possibilities in the Waste Management Sector. They then launched Mr. Green Trading Africa
in September of 2014. Green’s strategy from the outset was to adopt an inside-out approach; starting by learning how local waste value chains function, and then scaling simple solutions to improve the sector creating a lasting competitive advantage.

Did you know that plastic recycling does more than just clean up our streets? It also acts as a vital economic engine.

In Kenya, thousands of jobs and livelihoods are sustained through the collection and processing of recyclable materials. As well as directly employing people in our operations, in 2025 we purchased waste from 2450 waste collectors and suppliers generating a valuable source of income.

Recycling can seem like a mythical creature – most people have heard of it but they’ve never actually seen it in real life. Most of us never think about where our waste goes once we throw it away. But where is ‘away’?

At Mr Green Africa we are turning this mythical creature into a living, breathing reality, and putting ‘away’ on the map. The moment you throw out your waste is only the beginning. Every day, often before sunrise, our team and our suppliers are already on the move. They are opening collection points, loading bags, sorting materials, mapping routes and creating value from what was once overlooked.

We want help everyone to learn about recycling and the circular economy, to remove the mystery. So, we are stepping away from the numbers and stepping into the lives behind them. Over the next few months, we invite you to meet the people building Kenya’s circular economy and turning waste to value. Not from the side lines, but with their hands, their time and their belief that waste is an opportunity. These are the heroes saving the 254. Stay tuned...

We are excited to share that Mr Green Africa is now triple ISO certified — and what that really means is consistency you can rely on.

✅ ISO 9001 — Quality Management
✅ ISO 14001 — Environmental Management
✅ ISO 45001 — Occupational Health & Safety

These certifications are more than badges on a wall. They are a reflection of the standards our team holds itself to every single day — from the collectors who bring in plastic waste, to the workers on our factory floor, to the customers and partners who trust us with their supply chain.

This is a statement for world-class standards. That sustainability and quality are not trade-offs. That protecting our people and our planet is simply how we do business.

Thank you to our entire team, our partners, and our community. This one is for all of you. 🙌

Every day is recycling day at Mr. Green. ♻️
Behind every piece of plastic that gets collected, sorted, and given new life, there's a person who made it happen. A wastepicker. A driver. A household that separated their waste. A business that chose to do things differently.
Real impact doesn't come from a single campaign. It comes from people, showing up every day, building the systems that close the loop.
This World Recycling Day, we see you. We celebrate you. You are the solution to plastic pollution.

Every day, before most of us are awake, wastepickers are already at work, sorting, collecting, and keeping our city cleaner.

This , we're proud to spotlight two incredible individuals, Sella and Simon, from Mathare Social Justice Centre. and share what a day in their lives truly looks like.

They are not just waste collectors. They are environmental heroes, circular economy champions, and community pillars who deserve dignity, recognition, and fair pay.

And here's the truth: tackling plastic pollution depends on people like Sella and Simon, whose critical work often goes unnoticed and uncelebrated. Help us change this by acknowledging the valuable work of waste pickers, not just today but every day, they are a crucial part of the .
