TL;DR

Buff City Soap is opening its first Cincinnati location as part of its plans to expand across Ohio with 80 new soap makeries. The brand offers customizable, handmade soap products crafted by local artisans at in-store Makeries.

“Buff City Soap is a truly exceptional concept and we can’t wait to share it with the people of Cincinnati and in markets throughout Ohio,” stated President of Buff City Soap Midwest LLC, John Clancy. “The uniqueness of the model and the quality of the products are second to none in the retail space.”

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.

“We have loved calling Cincinnati home for the past 10 years and have a passion for success and a heart for this community,” stated Mike Hamilton who along with his wife Danielle are the local franchisees who will oversee the Ohio stores. “With more than 15 years combined professional experience in the health and wellness industries, we quickly realized a unique opportunity with Buff City Soap and were eager to bring it to Cincinnati.”

“Buff City Soap’s products are all 100% plant-based and handmade in-store daily by our local artisans,” added Mike. “When customers stop by our stores, they will get to see their own products crafted right before their eyes, and have the opportunity to personalize their own soaps, which is completely unique to our brand.”

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.

“It’s a really exciting time to be part of Buff City Soap,” added Danielle. “We are proud to help the brand expand its presence in Ohio, and are eager to share our products with the Cincinnati community, among many others, in the coming months.”
