Zhanyl A.

Zhanyl lives with her family in Bishkek and has taken the step from civil service to self-employment with courage and foresight. After many years in the public sector, the trained economist decided to move into the private sector and, together with her husband, quickly built up a professional sewing business. What began as support for her sister's overloaded sewing business in Russia developed into an independent, dynamically growing company within five years.

Starting with 10 seamstresses, the company now employs over 220 people in 3, soon to be 4, rented workshops. It produces high-quality women's outerwear, from fashionable blouses and shirts to hoodies and elegant suits. The collections are characterized by their versatility: suitable for everyday wear and at the same time combinable for festive occasions. Complementary accessories such as necklaces and brooches give the models an individual touch and create additional styling options.

Project description

The growing demand via online marketplaces opens up great opportunities for growth. At the same time, fluctuating raw material prices, political conditions, and production spread across multiple locations pose challenges. Zhanyl attaches great importance to qualified and reliable employees. Experienced seamstresses form the foundation, and new employees receive targeted training. At the same time, the couple is working on clear structures to strengthen identification and long-term loyalty.

Zhanyl sees significant potential for development in financial accounting, planning, and process optimization. With the support of BPN, she wants to create stable structures and lay the foundation for her own factory and a strong fashion brand, with the aim of transforming the family business into a sustainably successful employer for hundreds of people.
