Description

KAHANI is a consumer-facing B2B digital tool to reduce waste in the fashion industry by increasing the circularity of the products. The fashion industry is the second most polluting industry globally, KAHANI is aiming to reduce the waste generated by this industry, which is more than $500 billion loss every year due to underutilization and lack of recycling. KAHANI aims to divert waste from landfills, as products which can be repaired, reused, repurposed, and recycled are ending in the landfills because the options are not convenient for the consumer.

Implementation of the Project/Activity

Offering zero emissions products, using renewable source of energy for operations and offsetting the rest of the emissions.
