Gringgo initially started as CashForTrash in late 2014. Founded by a team gathered during Startup Weekend Bali 2014 at HUBUD co-working space. It was initially created as a platform for recycling aimed at local schools to make recycling easier, rewarding and fun. However the model didn't last, and the team evolved after 6 months of starting.

The Journey

Gringgo started in August 2015 by some of founding members from cash for trash.
