At the Northwest Ethnic Minority Business Awards this year, A mini eco system which aims to recycle food waste and decrease waste sent to landfill was the recipient of the Young Entrepreneur of the Year title. Designed by Kenneth Cheung from Liverpool, the system creates compost which allows seeds to be ready for planting in just 14 days.
Cheung’s design, the BEECylce, quickly caught the attention of the awards’ judges with its ingenuity and speed of which composting was ready and available for use in the garden. The younger entrepreneur’s design allows compost from food waste to be created efficiently, easily, and in an environmentally sound manner.
According to Cheung, he saw a hole in the market upon leaving his schooling at university and decided to fill the gap. He added that he was honoured to win the award and that receiving the award has just confirmed his notion that his design is a good one.
The awards are sponsored by the Northwest Development Agency. According to chief executive, Steven Broomhead, the awards are a great way for the company to be involved in sparking the imagination of upcoming entrepreneurs as well as encouraging individuals to expand their businesses around the region.
