The Challenge

The current housing shortage makes it extremely difficult for students to settle in when moving to Rotterdam. At the same time, around 1 freighter is retired weekly in the Netherlands.

The solution

The retired vessels can be upcycled and reused with circular economy principles, turning them into co-living space with 6-8 bedrooms. This housing opportunity is available at the medium-term.

Mission

Boco upcycles retiring vessels into co-living spaces for self-sustained communities.
