Our team ideated a roll out of a plastics collection company which would sort and sell plastic waste to other recycling companies. Having collected more waste faster than the recycling companies could uptake, this original idea was pivoted, and a decision was made to do value addition to these plastics hence the decision to manufacture alternative building products emerged. Thus, Gjenge Makers was born. The company was founded in 2018 and is registered under under the Companies Act, 2015 Our mission is to innovate solutions to create beautiful and sustainable alternative construction products for Kenya and the African continent. Our Vision is to provide sustainable and affordable alternative building materials whilst creating job opportunities for youths and women and to promote a recycling and upcycling culture in Kenya and Africa.
