Buff City Soap Brings Plant-Based Products to Ann Arbor

Buff City Soap will soon be opening a new location in Ann Arbor. The new store will be located at 3143 Ann Arbor Saline Rd. and is slated to open Aug. 25.

To celebrate the opening the store in Ann Arbor will host a VIP Event. The first 50 people who visit the new store each day from Thursday, Aug. 25 – Sunday, Aug. 28 will receive one free bar of soap every month for a year.

“Ann Arbor is the perfect destination for a brand like Buff City Soap. We can’t wait to share all of our plant-based and handmade, customizable soap and body products with the community,” said Virginia Kamenitzer. “At Buff City Soap, employees can literally walk customers through every ingredient that’s in our products. There’s no big box delivery, but there is a deep personal pride that goes into every product we create. It’s a real joy to share something that satisfies our customer’s needs and wants!”

Founded in 2013, Buff City Soap has created a plant-based and handmade 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.

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 Ann Arbor store hours will be Monday – Thursday, 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., Friday – Saturday, 10:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. and Sunday 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.
