Who we are
About us
Unconventional Media is an outdoor media and waste management company which believes in driving social and environmental positive impact. We drive social impact in local communities through running recycling and community development projects using the Abomakgereza Social Enterprise. Part of our community engagement and intervention includes training and equipping local informal waste collectors with basic business and entrepreneurial skills needed to take their waste trade to the next level
We have designed and manufactured functional waste trolleys for recycling waste pickers that are more durable and more safe compared to the ones they currently use.
The new trolleys also act as mobile billboards that enable our advertising partners to communicate their brands and therefore make this social enterprise more sustainable.
What we offer
Advertising
We have built functional and durable recycling collection trolleys, with large spaces available for corporate marketing. Our trolleys are clean, fun, and a great branding opportunity for South Africa’s best companies
Event Clean-Ups
We also provide waste management services at events whereby we employ Abomakgereza at these events who provide cleaning services using branded waste trolleys. This enables Abomakgereza to earn additional income over and above what they normally earn during their daily hustle.
