Zero Waste Consult is a Uganda-based standards and certification consultancy working with banks, SACCOs, NGOs, manufacturers and government-aligned bodies across East Africa.
Zero Waste Consult began with a hands-on discipline: getting the collection, transport, reuse, recycling and disposal of electronic and hazardous waste right, from legislation through to the final step. That work required us to understand environmental and safety standards from the inside — not as theory, but as daily practice.
That grounding became the foundation for a broader standards and certification consultancy. Today we take organisations through certification against ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, ISO/IEC 17025, ISO 22000 and FSSC 22000, and provide independent conformity assessment for the construction sector — while continuing the waste management work that shaped how we think about compliance.
Our tagline isn't a slogan we added for this site — it's the operating principle behind every gap assessment, every internal audit, and every certificate we help a client earn.
Our assessments and recommendations serve the standard, not a sale. Where a system isn't ready for audit, we say so — and fix it before you're exposed.
Irrespective of where you are in your ISO journey, our auditors build consultancy around your actual system, not a generic starting point.
We engage continuously with clients, government authorities and other stakeholders — because a standard only holds if everyone around it is aligned.
Our client base spans institutions where compliance isn't optional — and where a lapse carries real consequences for customers, employees or the public.
