Where does cashmere wool come from?

Yesterday we talk about the first question regarding cashmere and we have answered what it is and what animal produces said wool. Today we will focus our answer more on the place cashmere wool is produced more. In the first post, we have answered that Mongolia is one of the major producers of cashmere wool and today the country is in a great challenge because of the changes of weather that in return affects the herding of cashmere goats and at the same time the production of the cashmere wool.

Aside from Mongolia, other countries in Asia, Pacific, and the Europe are also growing cashmere goats for their wool. Countries that are major producers of cashmere wool are China, Pakistan, India, Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey, and Australia. The wool these countries produce are exported to different countries as well like Japan, Italy, Scotland, and England fabric makers and eventually shipped across the globe to distribute to textile manufacturers to made into jackets, workwear apparels, shirts, and other forms of clothing.
