How It Works
1. Measure
Lita's Mexican Foods Inc. donates a percentage of every product purchase to fund the collection of 882 lbs of low-value PP plastic waste from oceans and landfills every year.
2. Compensate
Low-value plastic is collected, processed and reused by TakaTaka Solutions - a waste management service in Kenya that employs and empowers waste pickers to tackle plastic waste.
3. Reduce
Lita's Mexican Foods Inc. will work with rePurpose Global to reduce the future use of virgin plastics in their products and build a more circular business and delivery mode for their company.
