Early plastic / Waste paper basket / Denmark/ 1940s / P. Jeppesen /

The logo features a stylized figure, possibly a pixie or gnome, holding what looks like a bucket in one hand and a tool, perhaps a hammer or a rake, in the other. This figure is incorporated into a large, stylized letter 'P'.
Based on the logo and the "MADE IN DENMARK" text, it's very likely that this is the mark for a company called "P. Jeppesen" or "P. J. Jeppesen", a Danish manufacturer. The figure of the pixie is a well-known part of their branding. They were known for producing a variety of plastic and household goods, including baskets, planters, and other items. The "basket" in your query confirms this.
This is a classic example of Danish mid-century design and manufacturing, and items with this mark are often sought after by collectors of vintage Danish plasticware.
