This season, Ukrainian footwear brand #Kachorovska will once again award a grant of ₴100,000 to a young brand participating in Ukrainian Fashion Week.

Its growth is impossible without generational change and the direct transfer of expertise and craftsmanship from hand to hand. The winner will be announced on September 7,” says Alina Ocheretiana, CEO of Kacho Group.

“Our mission is to support the country’s fashion industry and to inspire young creators, who are just starting their journey, not to stop dreaming and creating. It is crucial for us that the new generation of talents ties its future to Ukraine,” says Iryna Danylevska, CEO of Ukrainian Fashion Week. ⠀

The Kachorovska grant may be used for expanding production capabilities, purchasing professional software, participating in international showrooms, educational programs for designers and team members, materials, digital marketing, or shooting a finished collection. The winner will be selected by the Kachorovska team, led by co-founder and CEO of Kacho Group, as well as Kachorovska’s creative director, Alina Ocheretiana.
