## Story

To celebrate their opening, the first 50 people who visit the new store in Arnold Thursday May 27th- Sunday, May 30th will get free soap for a year.

“We are thrilled to continue our expansion into the Greater St. Louis area with our new Arnold store,” said Brittany Peterman, Director of Operations. “Buff City Soap provides a unique shopping experience by giving our guests an opportunity to see how our plant based soaps and products are made daily in our soap makeries.”

Founded in 2013, Buff City Soap has created a high-quality alternative to commercial soap products full of harsh chemicals, detergents, animal fats, and sulfates. By giving customers the chance to see the whole making process live in each Soap Makery, Buff City Soap is disrupting the consumer goods industry by focusing on transparency of ingredients and process.

“Our soap makers are excited to create and customize our products with our variety of scents for the Arnold community,” stated Peterman.

Each Buff City Soap store offers more than 30 unique and customizable scents across dozens of handcrafted soap products; including its famous soap bars, bath bombs, foaming hand soap, and even laundry soap. The brand’s products are crafted by local artisans at the in-store Makeries, which allow guests to customize the scent and ingredients used in the process to create a unique scent profile.

The Buff City Soap franchise recently opened locations in St. Charles and Chesterfield and has plans to open an additional location in Kirkwood by end of 2021. For Opening Weekend only, the Arnold store hours will be Thursday - Saturday 9:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., and Sunday 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
