Project Pitch

BIDEC Circular Agro-Ecology Project aims to transform organic waste into high-quality, affordable organic fertilizers, promoting sustainable agriculture and environmental protection in Rwanda. By leveraging circular economy principles, the project reduces organic waste, mitigates environmental pollution, and contributes to climate-smart farming practices.

Our business model combines organic waste collection from households, agro-industries, and markets with processing into eco-friendly fertilizers, which are then distributed to smallholder farmers at competitive prices. Revenue streams include fertilizer sales, waste management services, and strategic partnerships with agricultural cooperatives and local authorities.

Operationally, BIDEC Group Ltd manages a fully integrated value chain: sourcing and sorting organic waste, processing and composting, quality control, packaging, and distribution to farmers and agro-dealers. We also provide technical support and training to farmers, helping them optimize crop yields while promoting sustainable practices. The project creates employment opportunities across the supply chain, supports local farmers with affordable inputs, and aligns with Rwanda’s national priorities for green growth, food security, and climate resilience. Through innovation, partnerships, and scalable operations, BIDEC Circular Agro-Ecology Project delivers economic, environmental, and social impact, making it a strategic investment for stakeholders committed to sustainable development.
