Making a positive difference to people, the economy and the environment prompted the beginnings of Re-Purpose.

Re-Purpose is a BEE level 1 social enterprise, founded in 2019.

Re-Purpose is not a typical waste management company, we are a waste re-purposing company that deal with waste from the source and convert it into a resource.

VISION

We will be an innovative leader in reverse logistics within the waste management sector, ensuring strategic partnership with producers, collectors and recyclers, leading to waste transformation and guaranteed employment.

OUR MISSION

We will reduce the gap within unemployment and the environmental challenge through implementing waste collection programs that deal with waste at the source and turn that source into a resource.

OUR VALUES

Worship – We are thankful, grateful and blessed to be able to make a difference every day of our existence. This is always celebrated with a mindset of abundance and not scarcity. We take small steps with a big vision consistently, respecting one another with integrity.

Grow – We believe this one word will inspire our staff, our partners, people and the businesses within our economy, of the impact we aim to achieve for the future. The only way to grow, is to constantly get better at what we do.

Fun – As the famous Steve Jobs quoted “love what you do and do what you love”, we encourage laughing, doing crazy stuff and enjoying who we are. Having fun in what we do influences high energy and high energy will lead to high results. 

Be Different – We constantly challenge the status quo and find innovative ways of doing business with the aim to be better first, then bigger.

Waste collection programs from the source.

Many producers of consumer products such as soft drinks, food packaging, body lotion, detergents and other products consumed daily barely have waste collection programs from the source. These large corporates rely on the regular waste management and municipal services to deal with their waste but these services barely exist in residential and rural areas, which are at present, the highest generators of post-consumer waste.
