ARE ORGANIC TRADE AND INVESTMENTS PRODUCTS ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY?

SDG 14; life below water, is hysterically ridiculed according to Forbes, judging from the Approximately 13 million metric tons of plastic waste enter the oceans each year, tantamount to one garbage truckload every 60 seconds.


In October 2020, the same article above titled “Ghana’s ambitious plan to reduce plastic waste”, Ghana was underperforming with a crawling 5% rate of plastic recycling. A fortiori, the government’s urgent decision to be the first African country to join World Economic Forum’s Global Plastic Action Partnership (GPAP).


These ambitious efforts made by the government of Ghana will fall to nothing if other stakeholder companies like Organic Trade and Investments (OTI) do not indulge their weights.

It is on this note that one of our missions at Organic Trade and Investments (OTI) is to promote the use of sustainable alternatives to plastic material in packaging while supporting small-scale farmers and producers who practice sustainable organic farming in Ghana to protect biodiversity and improve people’s livelihoods.


We have made it a point to keep most of our products in biodegradable and recyclable packages to reduce the environmental pollution rate in Ghana and other countries we export to.


Despite the relatively low durability, one advantage of paper is that it decomposes quicker than plastic, and therefore it is less likely to be a source of litter and pose a risk to wildlife and our environment. Paper is also more highly recyclable, while plastic can take between 400 and 1,000 years to decompose.


With OTI, we have never compromised on the quality of our products. Our environment is no different. Join the campaign. OTI, Quality products, Quality environment.
