Jaggery creates livelihood opportunities for people from disadvantaged communities and transforms industrial waste from northern India into bags, cases, and other functional everyday gear. They source, clean, and repurpose old seat belts, cargo lashing straps, decommissioned military canvas and parachutes, tarpaulins, inflatable bouncy castles, textile offcuts, and other waste materials1. Using high-quality new hardware fittings, they ensure durability and minimize waste. Jaggery employs staff from communities that have been discriminated against, providing fair trade wages, English classes, and training in basic computing skills1. They use their platforms to raise awareness about waste, fair trade, and the transition to a circular economy.
Partnering with Trees for the Future, they plant a tree for every purchase1.
