Wellington-based small business Method Recycling have won the $50,000 Westpac Growth Grant for 2016!

The company, co-founded by husband and wife team Steven and India Korner, creates stylish and functional recycling options for corporate offices.

Even though they’ve only been operating for a couple of years, they have already had great success, with customers in Australia,

“We’re a bit blown away to be honest”, Steven says. “We were privileged to being the top 6, but to take out the $50k, we’re pretty humbled by it.”

India agrees. “It will make such a difference to our business. We’ve got a good product and to really push it to the next level, it’s just amazing.”

Steve and India spent three years designing the perfect rubbish bin for the modern and environmentally conscious corporate. Not only are the bins super stylish, but their stations are also easily customised so customers choose how many recycle bins they need, which recycling streams, and where they want them.

Steven says the Growth Grant will go towards their exporting goals to Australasia, and hopefully further afield too.
