Luxury, sustainable cashmere company gives back to Mongolian community

His goal has always been to build a traceable, ethically sourced and sustainable cashmere brand that encompasses both luxury fashion and the Nomadic way of life.

Parent company Khanbogd has remained one of the top 100 companies in Mongolia for the production and supply of cashmere over the last 13 years.

Vicky Dzamsran recently became a member of the West London Chambers of Commerce. She is currently sourcing outstanding overseas candidates for the healthcare sector ( www.care-hub.mn) and supporting her husband’s recently established cashmere brand.

Bat-Erdene Victor Nyamdavaa, CEO and co-founder of BOGD CASHMERE, a luxury cashmere brand in the UK, is uniting his Mongolian heritage with over ten years’ experience in the retail industry.

BOGD cashmere draws inspiration from the vast landscapes of Mongolia, preserving and protecting centuriesold traditions to continue producing its cashmere, without harming the land or culture of the Mongolian nomads.

“We celebrate individuality through our designs, combining the noble history of the craft with cutting edge technology to produce the most superior, high-quality range of garments unlike any you’ve experienced before,” he said.

“Putting back into the community is at the forefront of our operations, working personally with our herders and producers, ensuring that every piece of Bogd cashmere you adopt is so much more than a transaction.

“Our unique cashmere brings a spiritual warmth to its wearers, allowing them to experience the world more authentically and in ultimate comfort. This sentiment is articulated in our forward fashion design.”

Their training centre in Mongolia aims to provide training and seminars for the Mongolian wool and cashmere industry, including herders and producers, to support the education of workers, increase incomes, and contribute to the sustainable growth of the industry.

To process their raw material, they commissioned a fully automated knitwear factory in 2019, equipped with 14GG, 12GG, and 7GG knitting machines.

“The factory alone provided jobs to over 100 people from vulnerable families, also supporting femalerun households with home-owning opportunities and aiding the communities we source our cashmere from,” he added.

“Our company has installed a renewable energy system at its knitting factory. From the money we’ve saved by using solar-powered energy, we have been able to put more funding and focus into improving workplace conditions for our employees. We also promise to plant one tree and vaccinate one goat for every transaction.”

Bogd is proud to be partnered with Ecologi by assisting tree planting and carbon offset projects globally.
