We’ll strive to revolutionise waste management - Zoomlion

Zoomlion Ghana, a waste management company and a subsidiary of the Jospong Group of Companies, has said it will continually strive to revolutionise waste management and introduce modern innovative integrated solutions.

The company is currently operating in 12 industries/sectors in all 216 metropolitan, municipal and districts across Ghana and in five African countries.

A Communications Officer at Zoomlion Ghana, Mr Mohammed Mahama Adams, revealed this in a presentation at Ghana Side Event organised by the Ministry of Local Government and Rural Development at the ongoing United Nations Housing and Sustainable Development (UN Habitat) Conference in Quito, Ecuador. 

The Ghana Side Event was on the theme: “Urban Development Management in Ghana and Implications for the New Urban Agenda: The Case Study of the Urban Management Pilot Programme and the National Priority Planned City Extension of Ningo-Prampram”.

On the topic: The intervention of Zoomlion in the waste management revolution in Ghana, keeping Africa Clean, Green and Healthy, Mr Adams said the mission of Zoomlion Ghana was to be at the forefront of the environmental services industry in Africa and beyond.

That, he said, would be done through the introduction and utilisation of simple but modern technologies and methods of waste management by Zoomlion Ghana at affordable and competitive rates, while its vision was to be a champion of clean, green and healthy communities in Africa.

He said the intervention of Zoomlion in partnering the government through Private Public Partnership (PPP) and building subsidiaries along the waste management chain had changed the situation.

Mr Adams mentioned various forms of PPP, including the Waste and Sanitation Module, Public Cleansing, Sanitation Guards Programme and Zoom Kids Programme in Schools, the National Mosquito Control Programme, Sanitation Improvement Package, Volta Lake Transport, Zoil and Afforestation.

The other interventions are the tackling treatment and management of waste, oil and a hazardous waste and oil spill treatment facility in Takoradi in the Western Region, construction and management of engineered landfill and the nationwide plastic trash for cash.
