We must move from a linear economy to a circular economy that protects and drives profit within the Nigerian economy. This involves creating investments for a sustainable future, working with local recyclers, and preserving the profit from those streams within the country.”

By actively participating in FBRA and other industry initiatives, members aim to lead by example and inspire collaborative action for a sustainable future. “We are excited to have 29 members of the FBRA from the food and beverage industry contributing to solve the issues that affect our environment and ourselves, supporting the collection of the post-consumer waste. We must continue to encourage these practices, ensuring they become ingrained in our culture.”
The Beach clean-up exercise featured activities and concessions that encouraged collaboration amongst member-companies and kept participants engaged, as they marked the World Ocean Day by the shore.
