NomiNetwork – The crusade against Human Trafficking


The inspiration for the launch of Nomi Network began with a powerful story and a simple embrace. During the summer of 2008 while traveling through a rural province in Cambodia, Nomi Network’s co-founders had the opportunity to visit a rehabilitation home for abused Cambodian children. They were welcomed into the facility by an 8-year-old survivor of sex trafficking who threw her arms around them, and in that single embrace turned their worlds upside down.

They learned about her shocking past as a victim of sex trafficking, having been sold to a brothel where she endured traumatic sexual abuse that left her mentally disabled. This little girl’s story is unfortunately a common one, not only in Cambodia, but all around the world.

Nomi Network’s (“Nomi”) vision is to put an end to the vicious cycle of human trafficking by increasing the financial independence of vulnerable women.

We leverage our expertise in the fashion industry to implement excellence in product design, development, and marketing strategies for products made by survivors.

Through partnerships with factories and shelters in Cambodia and South East Asia, we ensure this process creates employment and career development opportunities for the women we desire to empower.

Nomi Network launched our own line of products including our signature BUY HER BAG NOT HER BODY TM tote bag, our Traveler’s Collections of summer beach totes and duffle bags, and our colorful Patchwork Collection of shoulder bags.

Buy Her Bag Not Her Body The proceeds we generate from sales go towards the creation of career development and apprenticeship programs for the same women we are helping to equip them with the production skills, so they can create a marketable product.

We desire to empower those survivors who want to explore other careers opportunities beyond production to be able to do so. We are dedicated to using sustainable and recycled materials to create our products.

Currently Nomi had two collections, our Traveler’s Collection, our Patchwork Collection, in addition to our signature tote, emblazoned with our BUY HER BAG, NOT HER BODY TM slogan.

Nomi Network sells our own line of products at wholesale to retailers. We also source and designing products for other cause based non-profits.

These non-profits receive added value to their products because they are ensured a transparent labor supply chain, as well as a commitment to utilizing sustainable materials. Please email Supei Liu with the email link below if you are interested in our sourcing and design services.

You can find our products on-line 24 hrs a day our web site which has an online store.
