ReGround
Organic waste recovery in Abuja.
ReGround collects separated organic waste from businesses and markets, records what is recovered, and turns it into useful soil products for agriculture.
Why ReGround
Useful organic material should not be wasted.
Useful organic material is still being discarded while farmers and gardeners continue to pay for soil inputs. ReGround connects that gap with a practical recovery process.
How it works
From separated waste to productive soil.
Separate at source
Collect
Weigh and record
Process
Return to the soil
What we produce
Soil products from recovered organic material.
Our current focus is a bokashi-based soil mix using recovered coffee grounds, with dry compost from food waste under development.
Traceable waste recovery
We track what we collect.
Collections can be linked to the source, weighed and recorded so partners have a clearer record of the waste they divert.
Current traction
Active cafe collection partners in Abuja.
Live digital collection platform.
Organic waste collection and product trials underway.
Our approach to scale
Coffee grounds proved the model. Food waste is the bigger opportunity.
Coffee grounds helped ReGround test a clean, easy-to-separate recovery stream. Food waste creates the next opportunity for collection and processing.

Founder, ReGround
ReGround grew from Chika’s experience composting coffee grounds and kitchen waste in her own garden in Abuja, and seeing how much useful material was being discarded across the city.
