The relevance of the chosen research topic is due to the fact that the environmental situation is currently deteriorating more and more, not only in Russia, but also in the entire world community. The entire environmental situation in the world and in Russia, in particular, depends on an increasing number of waste recycling plants. Very often, in many regions of our country, garbage recycling is carried out only formally, on paper, without conducting real inspections, which leads to a deterioration of the environmental situation as a whole. In this regard, the author identified the need for the development of a business plan for the processing of plastic waste. The method or methodology of the work. The research is based on a general scientific methodology, which provides for the application of a systematic approach to solving the problems of waste recycling by developing a specific business plan on the example of a newly created enterprise.

That is why, with the constantly deteriorating environmental situation, the development of a business plan becomes an important task, one of the standard samples is the business plan developed in this study for the organization of a plastic waste recycling enterprise. The paper considers the methods of traditional business planning designed for analysis and decision-making in uncertain situations based on modeling of a plastic waste recycling enterprise on the example of Eco-Element LLC. The author has developed a work schedule and a standard staffing table of the projected enterprise LLC "Eco-Element", according to which new jobs appear already at the initial stage of the organization. In addition, job descriptions of employees have been developed in detail. The study provides a comparative analysis of potential consumers of products and an assessment of competitors of the company "Eco-Element" with the identification of a possible market niche.
