Nyungu Afrika is a women-led startup focused on creating eco-friendly sanitary pads made from natural agricultural waste products, such as pineapple leaves and corn husks. The company aims to address the environmental impact of traditional menstrual products, which are predominantly made of plastic and take hundreds of years to decompose. By utilizing biodegradable materials, Nyungu Afrika not only provides a sustainable alternative but also empowers local communities by collaborating with farmers and vendors. Their commitment to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals further positions them as a socially responsible business in the menstrual health space, targeting a significant market of menstruating individuals who seek environmentally friendly options.
