Planet Green Africa’s World Youth Forum 100 Top Start-Ups recognition highlighted the promise of a young Malawian company building a cleaner alternative to traditional cooking fuels.

The achievement celebrates the early strength of PGA’s idea: turn agricultural waste into Nyasa Moto briquettes, make cleaner cooking more affordable and build a distribution model that creates income as it grows.

It also captures the energy of PGA’s journey. From start-up recognition to later awards, fellowships and partner support, the through-line has stayed the same: cleaner kitchens and stronger communities in Malawi.
