Goal
The business initiation offers German companies an ideal opportunity to position themselves in a promising market at an early stage and actively contribute to the further development of sustainable waste management in Brazil.
Background
The waste management and recycling sector in Brazil is developing into a significant growth market. According to the Brazilian Association of Public Waste Management and Hazardous Waste Companies (Abrelpe), around 79 million tons of waste are generated in the country every year. Around 60% of this volume is currently disposed of in landfills – a clear indication of the urgent need for more sustainable and efficient disposal solutions.
At the same time, Brazil is taking the first steps towards a circular economy. This includes waste recycling initiatives such as composting organic waste and converting waste into biofuels and energy.
