BUYO in the news today!Governments around the world are issuing bans on single-use plastics and mandating a shift to bioplastics and recycled plastics. Most major corporates are also phasing out plastics in their supply chains. This is the “golden time” to start a company to fight plastic pollution, which has become one of the biggest global crises.
BUYO is delighted to share that Aldebaran Capital Pte. Ltd., Mdm Le Hoang Lan and Antler have closed out our pre-seed funding round and committed to support us in the journey of de-plasticizing our planet.
