water business kits™
Aquaya is catalyzing the development and spread of businesses to deliver safe water to the underserved.
We are working to replicate the enormously successful Southeast Asian water refill model in new markets, beginning with Kenya and Vietnam. Water refill businesses employ state-of-the-art water treatment technologies to purify drinking water on site for sale to consumers at low prices.
We are developing the Water Business Kit™ – a water refill business-in-a-box customized to different markets. This kit will empower tens of thousands of entrepreneurs and small businesses to profitably deliver safe water in communities where it is scarce.
