Combining economic growth and environmental impact.
Konnect Planet is a program created through a partnership between Konnect and Soul & Planet. It offers Konnect-affiliated merchants the possibility of automating a contribution starting from 0.1% of each transaction in favor of tree planting.
How it works:
Konnect Planet is a simple and effective platform for businesses to contribute to reforestation projects.
Merchant contribution
Activate this option to act directly on the environment with your payments. Indicate a contribution rate, for example 0.5%, which will be allocated to tree planting. In this way, every transaction becomes a step towards a more sustainable planet.
Customer contribution
By activating this option, you enable your customers to make an additional contribution on their purchases, at no extra cost to you. It's a simple and effective way to support environmental initiatives while promoting sustainable development.
Why Konnect Planet?
Konnect Planet is a unique platform that enables companies to contribute to reforestation projects in a simple and effective way.
Trees sequester CO2, a greenhouse gas responsible for global warming.
Forests are home to a wide variety of plant and animal species.
Trees filter air and water, making both cleaner.
Reforestation is an investment in the planet's future.
Total transparency
At the end of each year, a certificate signed by the Direction Générale des Forêts Tunisiennes, part of the Ministry of Agriculture, is issued. This document certifies the name of the merchant, the number of trees they have helped to plant, and the name of the benefiting forest.
Planting a legacy in Tunisia's forests
Konnect Planet focuses on several resilient and vital tree species such as Carob, Oak, Eucalyptus, Aleppo Pine and Acacia. These trees not only contribute to reforestation efforts, but also play a crucial role in maintaining the ecological balance of the Mediterranean region.
Beyond the environmental benefits, Konnect Planet has a direct and positive impact on the local community. As these trees age, they create a thriving ecosystem that enables local people to produce honey and harvest carob and Aleppo pine.
The longevity of carob and Aleppo pine trees contributes to the sustainable production of carob pods and Aleppo seeds. This not only opens up economic opportunities for local residents, but also enriches the region's agricultural heritage.
The presence of eucalyptus and acacia trees is a major advantage for local beekeepers. The flourishing flora provides an abundant source of nectar, resulting in high-quality honey production, supporting the growth of local beekeeping businesses and contributing to sustainable livelihoods.
We believe in creating meaningful opportunities for the community. Residents are not only the custodians of this forest; they are the architects of its revitalization. We are proud to employ community members to plant and maintain these trees, providing a source of income and fostering a sense of ownership and pride.
