Cooperation work for a fairer world.

Water franchise improves water supply across the world.

Water means food. Around 85 percent of water consumption in Africa and Asia is used for agriculture.

Both the supply of drinking water and the treatment of wastewater are taken for granted in the western industrialized nations. The situation is very different in the threshold and developing countries. Modern water management systems are rare there. In order to change this situation, we have, together with two cooperation partners, developed a franchise concept which is as unusual as it is efficient. Under the umbrella of the Global Water Franchise Agency (GWFA), we implement urgently needed water projects in many different countries. For, water means life and we use our expertise to ensure that as many people as possible have access to this valuable raw material.

 

 

 

Cooperation work creates the best solutions

The water franchise is a novel kind of franchise system: local entrepreneurs are directly involved in the projects. This enables regional knowledge and a greater level of local acceptance to be united with the GWFA's international know-how – including technology, quality and sustainable management. The results are modern, low-cost water systems and win-win situations from which all those involved benefit.

 

 

 

A greater quality of life: with its plants to tap into and process fresh water, our water franchise is setting the course for a better future in many regions around the world.

Over 30 countries are already suffering from acute water shortages. And this figure is continuing to rise: in 20 years, this will have increased to approx. 50 countries affecting a total of three billion people.
