Providing container-based sanitation services with waste collection for low-income families in Kumasi

FacebookTwitterLinked In

Start Date: 01/04/2018- End Date: 30/06/2020


Clean Team Ghana Ltd. (CTG) is a social enterprise, providing container-based sanitation services in Kumasi. CTG provides a quality plastic toilet to the customer, who pays a small weekly fee for services, then collects the waste weekly, by sealing the used cartridge and replacing it with a fresh one. The waste is then safely disposed of. CTG markets directly to low-income families on the basis of convenience, hygiene and cost savings over using public toilets. This project will serve 35,000 residents via 7,000 installed toilets.
