At Wangaraufoods, we’re committed to sustainability in everything we do. As part of our ongoing efforts to reduce waste and promote eco-friendly practices, we’re thrilled to introduce our new Refill Model. This initiative is designed to cut down on single-use plastic packaging while providing our customers with a more sustainable shopping experience.
What Is the Refill Model?
Our Refill Model allows customers to bring their own containers to our factory and refill products such as grains, spices, snacks, and liquids. By doing so, you’ll not only reduce plastic waste but also enjoy our products at a lower cost, since the packaging fee is removed!
How It Works
- Walk-In Refills: Bring your containers to our factory and refill any available product.
- Refill Delivery Service: Prefer delivery? Choose the refill option when ordering online, and we’ll deliver your products in reusable packaging.
By participating, you’re actively helping reduce plastic waste and supporting a more sustainable food industry in Nigeria.
Why It Matters
Reducing single-use plastic is key to tackling global pollution. Many of our products, like grains and spices, come in plastic packaging that’s difficult to recycle. By switching to the Refill Model, we’re moving toward a zero-waste approach, allowing you to enjoy premium products without contributing to environmental harm.
Did You Know?
A 2022 study found that only 9% of plastic is recycled globally. The rest ends up in landfills or the environment, causing lasting damage to ecosystems. Read more about plastic waste here 
Eco-Friendly Packaging
In addition to our refill model, we’re also transitioning to biodegradable and recyclable packaging. Our goal is to reduce our environmental impact while still providing the best quality products.

This is not just a sustainability Practise enhancement but also, an inclusive Practise because it also allows low income earners to shelve any cost associated to bottling during purchase.
