The medals
We created medals to encourage and reward businesses that reduce their waste.
Zero Waste Saigon medals can be earned by businesses who make a commitment to waste reduction practices.
These businesses will receive medals that they will be able to display at their business’ physical location as well as on their website and social media.
These businesses will also be displayed here on our website and included in a list on our Facebook group which we encourage our community to support.
