Buff City Soap Cleaning Up Collierville

The new store will be located at 3615 South Houston Levee Road #102. Buff City Soap is known for its famous in-store Makery, where customers can watch employees handcraft their own soaps. The brand also houses a retail store where consumers can purchase bath bombs, body scrubs, beard balms and other bath products. This is the second Buff City Soap location for father and son Rudy and Kevin Herzke. The duo also owns the Germantown Buff City Soap location.

“We are very passionate about the Buff City Soap brand and we are excited to be able to share our plant-based products with more people,” said Kevin. “Buff City is an incredible experience that we want to share with as many people as possible, and we are thrilled to be able to bring Buff City Soap to the Collierville area.”

Buff City Soap was founded in 2013 when Brad Kellum, a former firefighter paramedic discovered that his every day store-bought soap was packed with cow fat and other synthetic materials. He, along with his fiancé and cofounder Jennifer Ziemianin, a registered nurse, began experimenting with a plant-based alternative in their garage.

Now, the brand offers traditional soap bars, along with a men’s care product line, plant-based laundry soap, skin-care products and other accessories. Each shop includes a Makery, where employees handcraft each product in-store. Customers can customize their products. Furthering its customization promise, the shops host birthday parties, bachelorette nights and other events, and launched a subscription box service.

“We are incredibly proud of Buff City Soap’s growth,” stated CEO Justin Delaney. “Dedicated franchise partners like Kevin and Rudy continue to help us provide communities across the country with access to plant-based, healthy alternatives. We are excited to establish the Buff City Soap brand in the Collierville community.”

Buff City Soap has 28 locations open in nine states, including Tennessee, Texas, Arkansas, Kentucky, Colorado, Alabama, Mississippi, Ohio and Florida. There are currently over 40 additional stores in various stages of development.
