Given Ngwamba, 35, from Naas in Mpumalanga, did not think he would struggle to find employment after completing his sound engineering diploma at the National Electronic Media Institute of South Africa, but life had other plans.

While battling to make ends meet, Ngwamba came up with an idea of making and selling charcoal through his business Ndzilo Charcoal.

Doing research, he found that there is a more sustainable way to create coal using agricultural waste, such as ground nuts, sugarcane, macadamia shells, coconut and waste from mango leaves and banana trees. “A lack of financial backing meant I had to make my own machine, with a welder. I didn’t have transport and had to use a wheelbarrow to collect waste from nearby farms.”“They accepted my application. I went on a business bootcamp in Polokwane and got a grant to better my model.”
