## Elevator Pitch
- Reuse organic waste from markets in Piura
- Create a range of affordable products such as biofuel, organic compost, and seeds for planting
- This reduces the amount of waste in the city and generates income

## Climate Problem
Pollution, the spread of disease, and the waste of resources in Piura: due to poor organization in the public sector, market waste is often not collected. This poses a danger due to decomposition and the emergence of pathogens.

## Solution
Using this organic material in high-demand products improves efficiency and productivity in this market sector, while also creating jobs for vulnerable individuals, helping merchants manage waste, and keeping Piura clean.

## Revenue Model
First, we will focus on selling seeds to generate short-term profits, given the time it takes for the other products to come to market. After that, we will move forward with the development of compost and biofuel.

## Target Market
Reusing organic waste

## Social Impact
People Living in Extreme Poverty

## Demand Evidence
Currently, due to rising oil prices, the market needs a substitute product, which would be biofuel. This is a viable option given the abundance of raw materials available for production. Furthermore, there are markets for seeds and fertilizers in Piura

## Competitors
There is no competition in the local biofuel market, but there are gas stations such as AVA, etc. In the fertilizer market, there is the company La Molina; likewise, the plant market is dominated by the informal sector.

## Founder Expertise
I have experience in small business management and in producing fertilizers such as compost, and I am also familiar with agricultural practices. This will help me carry out this project.

## External Support
None yet, but we hope to work with our team to form a partnership with the public sector to secure funding and coordinate our efforts, since we have a social mission that also benefits the city itself.
