CASE STUDY Agripreneur: Ngwamba turns agricultural trash into burning
treasure With a passion for sustainability and innovation, Given Ngwamba
transformed adversity into opportunity, creating Nzilo Charcoal and paving
the way for eco-friendly grilling solutions. Years ago, Given Ngwamba’s
garage in Ka-maqhekeza, Mpumalanga was transformed into an
impromptu innovation hub, filled with homemade machines that would
ultimately bring his ground-breaking idea to fruition. He wanted to create
coal using agricultural waste such as groundnuts, sugarcane, macadamia
shells, coconut, and waste from mango leaves and banana trees. The idea
came after Ngwamba found himself at a crossroads in 2019 after a failed
business venture left him seeking a new beginning. “We built our own
machines and experimented with different materials. It wasn’t easy, but we
were driven by the potential impact. “We’ve gone from a handful of friends
tinkering in a garage to a growing team; employment opportunities in our
community are incredibly rewarding,” he says. Turning waste into wealth
The name of Ngwamba’s business is Nzilo Charcoal, which means “hope”
in the local dialect. He sells his environmentally-friendly briquettes to local
retailers like Vleis Paleis Nelspruit and Naas SuperSpar for R37 per bag
who add their markup. Those who buy directly from Ngwamba pay R50 per
bag. At the core of Nzilo Charcoal lies the principle of agricultural
sustainability by repurposing waste into valuable resources for producing
cleaner-burning charcoal. In a meticulous process, Nzilo Charcoal begins
by gathering agricultural waste such as sugarcane husks, corn stalks, and
woodchips from nearby farms. “This waste becomes the fuel for our eco-
friendly briquettes,” Ngwamba explains. These raw materials undergo a
, transformative journey starting with sun-drying, an eco-friendly technique
that harnesses the power of natural sunlight. Once thoroughly dried, the
material is then subjected to carbonisation within specially designed kilns,
where it undergoes a metamorphosis into charcoal. The final stage of this
artisanal process involves Nzilo Charcoal’s handcrafted machines that
compress the carbonised material into dense briquettes. This careful sun-
drying process over several days not only ensures the purity of the end
product but also guarantees clean-burning charcoal, Ngwamba says. “Our
briquettes burn cleaner, releasing fewer harmful emissions.” Ngwamba’s
vision for a greener tomorrow The road to success was not paved with
ease. Limited access to funding and machinery presented a constant
hurdle. The three Covid years added an additional layer of challenge.
However, Ngwamba stayed strong and focused. He used the time to
improve his methods, driven by a strong desire to find a lasting solution for
his community. With the business doing well, he hopes to replicate his
briquette concept elsewhere. “Our affordable pricing makes sustainable
grilling accessible to everyone. “We’re a testament to the power of
innovation and collaboration. We started small, but our impact is growing,
and we invite others to join us on this journey towards a greener tomorrow,”
explains Ngwamba. Advice to aspiring entrepreneurs Ngwamba’s message
to aspiring entrepreneurs is to be passionate, work hard, and be innovative
as these are the cornerstones of success. He encourages them to: Find
their niche: Identify areas within the charcoal industry where they can offer
eco-friendly solutions. Embrace resourcefulness: Look for creative ways to
utilise waste materials or optimise existing processes. Be persistent:
Building a successful business takes time and perseverance. Don’t be
discouraged by setbacks. Source: Agripreneur: Ngwamba turns agricultural
