Compost Pickaaa

What if we turned food waste into a nutrient-rich and profitable compost?

COMPOST PICKAAA collect food scraps weekly from it’s user base and turns it into compost.

Residential areas are covered by courrier on electric bicycles, and restaurants get their containers picked up by electric vans.

The food scraps are brought to a facility center where they are literally piled up. “Green” materials such as coffee grounds and kitchen scraps are combined with “browns” like dry leaves and branches. Millions of microorganisms start feeding on this feast.

The result is a nutrient-rich soil component called humus. This high quality compost is then sold to local farmers and gardeners to feed their soil.
