Summary

Approach Maersk as a logistics partner rather than a grant funder. The proposition: Maersk could provide discounted or in-kind shipping for collected plastic material from developing country ports to recycling facilities in Europe. This reduces the organisations operational costs without requiring cash grants from Maersk, and gives Maersk a tangible ocean plastic story. Maersks sustainability team in Copenhagen is the first point of contact. Ocean Cleanup partnership precedent shows willingness to fund/facilitate ocean plastic work.
