BMC Garbage Collectors Recognized For Helping Preserve The Environment

On 4 June 2022 in Worli, team Beco India, the country's first natural home-care brand teamed up with the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) to celebrate the World Environment Day that takes place on 5 June each year. As a part of their "Do More" initiative, team Beco honoured the BMC garbage collectors clean as a part of World Environment Day.

In an effort to express their sincere gratitude towards the most underrated groups of workers that tirelessly strive each day to protect and preserve our environment as well as the surrounding areas to keep Mumbai green, and clean, Beco organized an appreciation lunch gathering for the G/South Ward of the BMC Karamcharis. The event was attended by approximately 300 BMC employees as well as around 15 officers from the Worli BMC Ward's senior staff, and the employees were treated to a delicious meal as a means of thanking them for their tireless efforts and hard work in leaving a greener footprint for the citizens of the city.

Additionally, the Beco team engaged with the BMC team, from employees to senior staff, to gain a sense of the pain points, and the motivation for participating, and to gain an understanding of future plans and how they might be able to assist. In recognition of their participation, all of the guests who attended received a bamboo toothbrush, bamboo tissue paper, bamboo wet wipes, bamboo tissue rolls, cornstarch garbage bags, Beco t-shirts, and chemical-free floor cleaners as a token of appreciation.

Co-Founder at Beco India, Akshay Verma shared his thoughts on the initiative and said, “This world environment day we wanted to thank the real environmental heroes, the BMC Garbage Collectors. They work so hard to clean up after us, it is time they are appreciated for the tremendous work they are doing. We decided this World Environment Day would be the perfect start to our Do More initiative where we will do a series of environmental activities every month across the city.”
