The DCC Business Accelerator Programme recently handed the 2019 winning company, Ocean Plastic Technologies, a cheque for R700 000. This is a preferential loan allocated for the roll out of the pioneering technology developed by this innovative business. Oliver Nudds, Managing Director of Ocean Plastic Technologies, says he was blown away by the unexpected windfall. “Since we were selected as the winning business in December 2019, we’ve had incredible support from the DCC Business Accelerator and the release of this funding confirms their ongoing commitment to the growth of our business,” he explains.
