In 2014, business partners Matt Scanlan and Diederik Rijsemus drove into Mongolia's Gobi Desert with $2.5 million tied up in plastic bags. Their goal: purchase 50 tons of cashmere wool from nomadic goat herders for their new clothing company, Naadam. Today, Naadam brings in more than $100 million per year selling relatively affordable cashmere clothing. Its lowest-cost - and most popular - cashmere sweater sells for $98.

I appreciate the fact that they built meaningful relationships with the Mongolian producers of the raw material, thus cutting out the middle man from the scene. The business model works on a good value system. Value is transferred to both the goat herders and the customers.

Recently bought some recommended stocks and now they are just penny stocks. There seems to be more negative portfolios in the last 3rd half of 2023 with markets tumbling, soaring inflation, and banks going out of business. My concern is how can the rapid interest-rate hike be of favor to a value investor, or is it better avoiding stocks for a while?

The truth is that this is really not as difficult as many people presume it to be. It requires a certain level of diligence, no doubt, which is something ordinary investors lack, and so a financial advisor often comes in very handy. My friend just pulled in more than $84k last month alone from his investment with his advisor. That is how people are able to make such huge profits in the market

This is probably the best video I have seen on Make It. What I appreciate the most from this video, is that the owners own that their luck factor. It takes luck to be in a position to get a 2.5 M loan. It takes luck to drop out of college and get a job in the financial sector in NYC. It takes hard work and dare I say luck to build the right connections in Mongolia, China, Europe, and the USA to get a proper multinational business going as smoothly as theirs. I have rarely seen this large amount of hard work, and luck working in unison to build such a profitable business, while still being good for the Mongolian people.

As long as they pay the Mongolians a fair wage, cool! But this market is going to eventually change. The prices will go up, granted not as high as $400. The word cashmere comes from the state in a country that is currently rapidly developing and is extremely good at clothing. Only a matter of time.

In 2022, Naadam brought in $100 million in total revenue selling a wide range of cashmere products, from its top-selling $98 sweater to sweatpants and tank tops. (The business declined to share its 2023 sales numbers before the close of its current fiscal year.) How long will they last?

Their knitwear is NOT made in Italy 🇮🇹 or Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 where the BEST KNITWEAR is actually made. It’s made in China 🇨🇳. BIG DIFFERENCE. Also, PETA did an investigation in how their Cashmere is sourced and how the goats 🐐 are being brutalized. People should look into this. Nadaam has refused to publicly discuss this matter.

Cudos to them for taking a SMALL LOAN of $2.5 Million dollars (yes 2.5 Million is small) and building a $100 MILLION DOLLAR business. R&D alone could cost more than a HALF of the LOAN. If it all FAILS your left with the BURDEN of paying back the LOAN. But it seems like they had a great BUSINESS PLAN and EXECUTED it ACCORDINGLY. But what do I know I DON'T own a SUCCESSFUL CLOTHING BUSINESS.
