Belle Verte LtéeCombining waste collection, entrepreneurship and environmental awareness raising through upcycling



Beach clean-up services for local guesthouses, teambuilding clean-up events for corporations, and waste pickup services for households and SMEs provide Belle Verte Ltée with a regular flow of waste products. The waste is then separated and sold to recyclers or upcycled into creative products during educational workshops. Community members are trained to become “green ambassadors”, that is, micro-entrepreneurs who collect waste that they supply to Belle Verte on a regular basis.
