Natural remedies

Myagmardorj J.

After studying in Russia, Myagmardorj worked for several years as a civil engineer and was responsible for various housing construction projects. At the time, his salary was barely enough to cover his living costs. He therefore decided to become self-employed and looked into various business models. One day he saw an advertisement in a newspaper for animal feed for sheep and cattle, enriched with shilajit (also known as mumijo). Shilajit is an ancient natural remedy from the mountains of Central Asia - the black gold of the mountains. This was the birth of his company.

Project description

Myagmardorj makes various products from shilajit: tea, honey, bath additives, etc. His customers are mainly women over the age of 40 who want natural products and take care of their health. Shilajit is said to have numerous healing effects on the gastrointestinal tract, brain, bones, immune system and fertility. Myagmardorj's products are certified by an independent laboratory. He sells them mainly in Ulaanbaatar with a home delivery service, in pharmacies or at food markets.

Myagmardorj plans to expand the range with products for athletes. He wants to strengthen his position in the domestic market and is aiming for new sales channels in Ulaanbaatar and the countryside. He would also like to enter into cooperation agreements with medical institutes. Myagmardorj seems motivated to develop his company further and is willing to learn new things.
