TL;DR
Buff City Soap has opened its first location in Newport, Kentucky, offering handmade, plant-based soap and body products. The new store is part of the company's expansion in Kentucky.
As part of their Opening VIP Weekend, the first 50 people who visit the new Newport store Thursday, August 5 - Sunday, August 8, will receive free soap for a year.
“We are excited to continue our expansion in Kentucky and share the Buff City Soap experience with the community in Newport,” stated Ellie Walls, District Manager.
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 ready to create and customize our plant based products and unique scents for the Newport residents,” stated Walls.
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 Newport location hours will be Monday-Thursday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Friday and Saturday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sunday 12 p.m. to 6 p.m.
