Tekcycle Ghana Limited is an agribusiness startup co-founded by Najat Hamid Mohammed, which transforms discarded pineapple waste into biodegradable cleaning products. The company’s goal is to promote a circular economy by reducing environmental waste and creating economic opportunities, particularly for young women in Ghana. Tekcycle received support from the KIC Agritech Challenge Pro, an accelerator program that aims to support young entrepreneurs with innovative solutions in the agricultural sector. With $20,000 funding, the startup has scaled its operations, refined its business model, and strengthened its supply chain. Tekcycle’s products not only reduce environmental pollution but also foster economic independence for women entrepreneurs. As a female-led business, Tekcycle is making a significant impact on women’s empowerment, creating employment opportunities and leadership roles for women in the green economy. With continued support from the Kosmos Innovation Center and the Mastercard Foundation, Tekcycle is poised to lead the way in Ghana’s green innovation movement, demonstrating that sustainability, inclusivity, and business success can coexist.
