In 2017, Equatorial Coca-Cola, along with seven other private companies, co-founded GRIPE, a private-sector led coalition aimed at addressing the threat posed by plastic waste to Ghana’s environment. GRIPE spearheads multi-stakeholder collaboration by uniting industry, government, NGOs, and informal waste pickers to develop local solutions to this global challenge.
In 2023, GRIPE made substantial strides in waste collection efforts within the country.
Through community clean-up campaigns, GRIPE successfully collected 4739 tonnes of plastic waste, contributing significantly to environmental preservation and waste management initiatives.
