AFRIpads is the world’s leading social enterprise manufacturing reusable menstrual products. Founded in 2010 in Uganda, the company introduced reusable sanitary pads to Sub-Saharan Africa to address the challenges women and girls face during their periods, focusing on access, affordability, and sustainability. The AFRIpads Menstrual Kits have positively impacted over 5 million women and girls worldwide.
Moreover, the company has recognized that driving change requires more than a product, thus they collaborate with humanitarian and development partners to offer a holistic menstrual health management solution involving product, education, and evidence. As a social enterprise dedicated to rural development, the AFRIpads factory in rural Uganda provides meaningful employment to over 150 local women.
The latest investment of €200.00K came from Opes Impact Fund in a Seed Round in December 2013.
