Oscar Circulair, founded in 2019, operates in the Waste Solution industry, headquartered in The Netherlands. With the compelling mission described in their slogan, "Oscar Circulair is op missie om steden afvalvrij te maken!", the company aims to revolutionize urban waste management.
Oscar's innovative strategy targets reduction in waste streams and enhancement of resource reuse. Their model uses small, sustainable vehicles to collect waste and materials from participants, operating seven days a week. This service is inclusive, employing individuals from marginalized communities. At each local hub, collected materials are sorted and prepped for further processing, reducing the city's pollution footprint and contributing to a circular economy.
Oscar's recent financial development includes a €1.50M Venture Round secured on April 24, 2023, with backing from notable investors like DOEN Participaties, Rabo Foundation, and Social Impact Fonds Rotterdam (SIFR). Their impactful business model and recent funding position Oscar as a promising contender in making cities cleaner and more sustainable.
