The following SDG impact is applicable to The Gool Roll:
The Good Roll Ghana is a pioneering social enterprise dedicated to manufacturing 100% tree-friendly, sustainable toilet paper and sanitation products utilizing locally sourced bamboo, a fast-growing and eco-friendly alternative to traditional wood pulp.
By establishing a fair-trade supply chain, the company drastically reduces deforestation while significantly boosting the incomes of local smallholder farmers and creating inclusive employment opportunities within its manufacturing operations.
Crucially, The Good Roll tackles global sanitation challenges by directing 50% of its net profits toward building safe, clean toilets and improving hygiene infrastructure across Ghanaian schools and communities. Recognizing the enterprise’s immense potential for environmental and socio-economic transformation, we proudly backed The Good Roll Ghana as a core portfolio company, managing a strategic investment period from 2021 through to our successful exit in 2023.
