Grameen Veolia Water Limited

By the grace of Almighty, Bangladesh has got natural resources as abundant groundwater that is not too deep and therefore provides relatively easy access to water. Unfortunately, for geological reasons, almost all of the groundwater has been found to be contaminated with arsenic, at levels that make it a health hazard. Today, more than 30 million Bangladeshis are exposed to the often fatal consequences of chronic arsenic poisoning.


Grameen Health Care Services Ltd. (GHS) established �Grameen Veolia Water Limited" in joint participation with Veolia Water AMI French Company, world leader in water and wastewaters services in 2008 registered under companies Act, 1994 of Bangladesh in order to fight that problem.


According to the precepts of social business, whereby there are "neither losses nor dividends," this investment will be paid for by water charges levied on consumers, which in turn will enable similar projects to be started elsewhere. The equipment is manufactured locally on the basis of know-how transferred by Veolia Water.
