THE ENTREPRENEUR REVOLUTIONISING RECYCLING

By Administrator | 20 September 2018

Narelle Anderson has helped to revolutionise recycling in Australia.  Anderson launched Envirobank Recycling in 2010 in response to the lack of recycling in public places. The reverse vending machine technology helps to incentivise, educate and reward consumers for their good recycling habits.

As well as being an innovative entrepreneur, Anderson is a well-known speaker and mentor. The entrepreneur has had a passion for the business world since a young age and has always loved sales. It is this passion that has helped her create a successful and game changing business. Dynamic Business sat down with Anderson to discuss what inspires her, her business and top tips for those who want to follow in her footsteps.

By chance Anderson ended up working for a waste management company called CBD Enviro Services owned by a man who wanted to get out when she wanted to get in.

“I am inspired by the recycling and sustainability sector because there are so many ways you can innovate or be the first to make a change in the industry. As a sector, we can protect our planet which, on its own, is inspiration enough. But, when you combine that with the opportunity to actively change people lives, it obsession and an inspiration every day,” says Anderson. Read more
