Ulaanbaatar /MONTSAME/ A women's group in Dundgobi aimag is producing multi-times reusable fabric bags, supporting a campaign to refuse plastic bags. “We have initiated the production to make a contribution to decrease inefficient consumption of plastic bags and to avoid toxic garbage, which takes over 100 years to decompose” said head of “Amgalan Undral” Group Ch.Tserendorj.
Seven women joined to form the group and started their production two months ago. They obtained sewing machines with financial support by the World Vision and a local development program of Dundgobi aimag. Durable bags are being made with various designs and for different uses, including for groceries, official documents and notebooks, using quality textiles and costs MNT1500-10000.
The group has supplied over 300 products to Nomin Supermarket in Ulaanbaatar and their local market. We are getting constant orders, said a member of the group P.Erdenechuluun.
