Business growth:<\/b><\/p>\n

After
\nfocusing efforts on R&D, pilot testing, and fine-tuning its business model
\nthe previous year, Siklus kick-started sales in Jakarta in January 2021. Over
\nthe course of the year, Siklus achieved 20X growth in sales, achieving over IDR
\n11.5 billion (USD 800k) in Annual Recurring Revenue and 15X growth in active
\nusers. <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Addressing the plastic waste crisis:<\/b><\/p>\n

Indonesia
\nproduces 6.8 million tonnes of plastic waste annually, ranking it the
\nsecond-largest contributor of ocean plastic waste in the world \u2013 second only to
\nChina, and more than India (The Borgen Project, 2021). In 2021, Siklus has
\nalready managed to save over 1.8 million single-use plastic packaging from
\nbeing produced. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Before
\nstarting Siklus, I was advised that selling household consumer products as
\nrefills would not be feasible. Today, Siklus is now providing refill solutions
\nto thousands of families in Jakarta. We have grown 20X this year, and established
\npartnerships with many of the top FMCGs,” shares Jane von Rabenau, Co-Founder
\n& CEO of Siklus. “And as our business grows, we steadily increase our environmental
\nimpact. To date, I’m proud to announce that Siklus has helped save nearly 2 million
\nplastic packages from being produced, replacing them with refills.” <\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Siklus x
\nFMCGs:<\/b><\/p>\n

In 2021,
\nSiklus established partnerships with industry-leading FMCGs, allowing the
\nbusiness to sell popular household products via refill to Indonesian consumers.
\nSiklus now works with Nestl\u00e9, P&G, Reckitt, Mars Petcare, Godrej, Unza
\nVitalis, Wings and Total.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“The commitment from the FMCGs to sign on with us this year justifies our business model, and is testament to the combined business and environmental potential of our refill solution,” says Laksamana Sakti, Head of Operations at Siklus. “Early next year, we will be announcing more major FMCG partners into our refill ecosystem.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Siklus recently
\nstarted a partnership with Reckitt to sell and deliver its Dettol products to
\nIndonesian consumers via refills:<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Reckitt is passionate about creating
\npositive impacts on consumers’ lives, as well as putting efforts on sustainable
\ninitiatives, which include protecting the environment. This new partnership
\nwith Siklus, is another way for Reckitt to further develop and scale our
\nenvironmental mission-driven business in Indonesia,” says Donny Wahyudi, Head
\nof External Communications & Community Affairs Reckitt Indonesia.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

2022
\noutlook:<\/b><\/p>\n

Siklus
\nrecently secured a pilot project in Labuan Bajo, which is set to kick-start in Q1
\n2022. The pilot is in partnership with the Indonesian Waste Platform (IWP), leveraging
\nSiklus’ refill solution to reduce plastic waste
\nin Indonesia’s Rural & Remote Communities (RRC). IWP has committed to support Siklus expansion to bring its refill business to other rural
\nregions in Maluku, Sumatera, NTT, Bali, Java and Sulawesi. These pilots, along
\nwith other upcoming FMCG and commercial partnerships also set to activate in
\nthe new year, Siklus’ outlook for 2022 looks promising.<\/p>\n
