LEGULP WATER BANK

Solving Nigeria Water challenges and conserving our Natural resource using innovative technology to mitigate the effect of Global warming

. Our LEGULP WATER BANK  is an Eco-friendly solar powered water dispensing machine, this is a solution that provides clean and safe drinking water to people within its installed location on a 24/7hours basis. It is  installed in communities that have no access to safe drinking water. The machine is solar powered and requires little or no human operations. The machine can either be connected to an existing water network or can be installed to generate its own water from the ground with the use of solar driven pumps. We have been also been able to integrate micro-mobile payments in order to allow for a seamless and easy transaction experience for our customers. We also have a designated Operator at each WATER BANK to assist customers who can’t operate the Machine.Our Legulp water bank is connected to an injection well that injects waste water back into the ground water to prevent lowering of the water table.it helps us monitor the ground water inflow and outflow which will help us conserve our natural resource and prevent global warming.

With LEGULP WATER BANK, More people can afford safe drinking water, less plastic waste is generated due to our refill strategy, more water is injected into our groundwater to reduce the effect of global warming and preserve our natural resources and thousands of dollars is saved for low income communities.

In the past and presently, waterpreneurs package clean drinking water in sachet and bottles. This approach has reduced the spread of water borne disease but has resulted in degradation of the environment; it causes blocked drains, Blockage of sewers.chooking of water bodies, flooding etc. Our solution is different as we tackle THREE of the world’s biggest challenges –access to safe drinking water, poverty reduction and Environmental Pollution. With our solution we are eliminating waste of plastics and nylons and introducing refill which would help save our environment, we also use a 3 stage process of reverse osmosis, microfiltration and UV sterilization technology which produces one of the finest quality of water and our solution is very eco-friendly as we channel our waste water back into the groundwater to artificially replenish ground water and save our natural resource.

Our solution will change the ay people buy and sell water, it would also change the way people withdraw water from the groundwater and bring an awareness of Ground water conservation which would reduce the effect of Climate change on our groundwater resource.

We have a disruptive business model We partner with local shops supermarkets governments  Install our WATER BANKS at zero cost to them at a secure location provided by our partners. Our WATER BANK uses a three stage process of reverse osmosis, microfiltration and UV sterilization technology to treat our water then dispense to people in the community. Our customers use refill containers and pay per litre of drinking water they purchase at a cost that is less than 50% of the price of bottled water.  our waste water is channeled back into the ground water to conserve our Natural resource 

Our injection wells-this is a technology used to inject waste water back into the ground water,it is an innovative technology

Our Legulp water bank is connected to Mobile devices and sends the Water test results to customers phone-This is a technology that builds confidence within our customers

Our 3 stage systemof reverse osmosis,micro-filteration and UV sterilisation is a technology that brings about one of the finest quality of water.

Our LEGULP WATER BANK is an eco-friendly solar powered water dispensing machine technology

To install over 20 LEGULP WATER BANKS in 5 different locations dispensing over 20000 litres of safe drinking water daily, reduce solid waste generation of over 2000kgs of waste and saving over 5000 litres of waste water in 12 months.

Have installed over 1000 LEGULP WATER BANK  in Communities, Government designated Locations, Local shops and Supermarkets dispensing a minimum of 1000000 litres of safe drinking water daily. . We would have saved over 20000 litres of waste water daily thereby helping us preserve our natural resources.

We would have created partnerships with government to install injection wells in every borehole drilled in the country in a way of monitoring inflow and outflow of groundwater to prevent lowering of the water table

A  beneficiary will engage with our service because the price of 5 litres can refill of clean drinking water is less than half the price of a 75cl bottled water. Secondly, potential beneficiary are confident in the quality of the water as it is being treated and dispensed in their presence and a water test is sent directly to their mobile numbers once a purchase is made compared to the ones bought on the streets without being sure of the source. Due to the epileptic power supply in Nigeria. We would carry out door to door advertisement within it location

 Presently we have two units of our LGULP WATER BANK in Ota Ogun state that dispenses 1000 litres of safe drinking water daily. We save over 100 litres of waste water daily.  With this our dispensing strategy we have saved over 3000kgs of plastic waste and have dispensed over 500000 litres of safe drinking water to  over 50 households in local communities and schools in Ota, Ogun state. Also due to our eco-friendly business model, we have been able to save over 10000 litres of waste water so far by channeling it back into the ground water 

 in 3 years our project will

Have installed over 500 LEGULP WATER BANK  in Communities, Government designated Locations, Local shops and Supermarkets dispensing a minimum of 500000 litres of safe drinking water daily. We would have secured partnerships with franchising companies to put our LEGULP WATER BANK in every shop, supermarket and street round Nigeria. By achieving this, we would help generate thousands of dollars for Government, Communities, local shop owners and supermarkets thereby helping our economy. We would have saved over 10000 litres of waste water daily thereby helping us preserve our natural resources

Emuveyan Oghenetejiri-CEO-Civil and Environmental engineer with over 6 years experience in  Water engineering (Water analysis and treatment, ground water management and borehole drilling).Hold a Certificate in Entrepreneurship Management from Enterprise development center and has raised over 100000 dollars for this initiative.

Engr.Sola Adesakin-A Mechanical Engineer With over 15 years experience building Water treatment Machinery

Temidayo Akinyosola-has a degree in Sales and Marketing with over 10 years experience working in fmcg Companies and has won over 20 accounts for the organisation

Direct sales revenue model-

From companies within 5km from our WATER BANK- we deliver 19liter refill jars to companies that have dispensing machines in their factory

Low income households-We provide clean water for low income households at a cost.

Other additional service Model

We install Eco-friendly treatment plants for factories whose integral part of their business requires clean water and collects a fee for installation

We believe Solve would give us the opportunity to get a 360 degrees view on our solution and develop the solution better to tailor customers needs and Make a bigger social impact.

Solve would enable us reach our 5 year goal of installing 1000 LEGULP WATER BANK in different communities faster

Illiteracy risk- About 75 million Nigerians are illiterates and Might not be able to operate the Water bank. To mitigate this risk our business Model includes employing a Machine operator to assist people in Refilling and paying for their service.

Vandalization- Break out of conflict might lead to the destruction of machines. So we intend to partner with Local shop owners, supermarkets, Governments to ensure 24/7 security of installed machines and also take out an insurance policy on each machine.
