SANParks has entered an agreement with Petco to enhance waste management in Kruger National Park. With approximately 1.8 million annual visitors generating substantial waste, the initiative focuses on improving recycling at picnic sites.

Petco supplied three durable, colour-coded bins to the Tshokwane Picnic Site to aid in separating recyclables. The goal is to ensure uncontaminated materials are recycled effectively, supporting a circular economy. Future plans include expanding the bin project to Nkuhlu and Afsaal Picnic sites, in partnership with Tourvest and Tindlovu.
