Masupa EnterprisesWaste is wealth – making charcoal briquettes from waste



Masupa Enterprises’ cook stoves and briquettes offer an alternative to traditional fuels for cooking, which are often expensive and have negative environmental and health impacts. The briquettes are made from trash found around cities like Kampala through the process of carbonisation.
The target customers are households and commercial customers, such as hotels, restaurants, bakeries and schools. In addition, women groups are trained on making and marketing the briquettes.
