Project description

Oyunkhishig makes various soft toys for small children: rabbits, bears and foxes. She makes her products using purely natural raw materials, without any hidden toxins. All the main raw materials come from Mongolia. The unique soft toys make children's eyes light up and bring joy. The bear represents the now rare Mongolian Gobi bear. Oyunkhishig donates a portion of every stuffed bear sold to the "Gobi Bear Foundation" in order to save the rarest bear in the world. All stuffed animals are also available with matching clothing. Oyunkhishig successfully sells its products in its own store and online via social media.

In future, Oyunkhishig would like to increase its share of the domestic market. To this end, she is expanding her range with new soft toys, such as a fawn. Oyunkhishig regularly attends BPN seminars and takes advantage of coaching. She is a highly motivated, hard-working entrepreneur with promising ideas for the future.
