About Green Team Worldwide Environmental Group
Green Team Worldwide Environmental Group is a proven, recession-resistant business in the recycling
and sustainability industry, with over 30 years of experience internationally and 14 years in the U.S. The
model is built around textile collection through strategically placed donation bins, generating recurring
revenue through a simple and scalable operation.
We offer an asset-light Express model for a low-cost, home-based start, as well as a Standard model
for those looking to scale into a warehouse operation with higher volume and margins. This is a
B2B-focused business with minimal staffing, strong unit economics, and no reliance on retail traffic.
Franchisees also benefit from a built-in downstream solution, with established channels that purchase
the collected material, providing consistency and operational simplicity.
We can accept the following items for reuse or recycling: Clothes, Shoes, Jackets, Purses, Hats, Belts, Blankets, Sheets, Jewelry, Bath towels, and any apparel or accessories.
Franchisees benefit from our proprietary systems, hands-on training, and ongoing support, with clear
opportunities to grow by increasing routes, adding bins, and expanding into larger operations over time.
