Turning Mango waste into daily used Organic cosmetics.
Description
Every year, over 60% of Mango harvest becomes waste in Subsaharan Africa between 14.7 and 25.2 Million tons. Most of it is left to rot, harming our environment and wasting opportunity. We saw potential where others saw waste by recycling the mango seeds, we create high quality cosmetics that fight skin problems from fungal infections to dryness while protecting the planet.
Impact
Heb's Organic is generating employment opportunities for local communities contributing to Uganda's economic growth. We are also promoting sustainable farming practices, enhancing profitability for farmers and supporting rural development.

By utilizing mango waste, Heb's Organic reduces waste management issues, supporting Uganda's environmental conservation efforts.
