## Story

To celebrate the opening, anyone visiting the store in Rye Brook from Friday, Feb. 4 - Sunday, Feb. 6 can enter a raffle in which 25 people will win FREE soap for a year (no purchase required).The store will also be offering opportunities to win FREE soap for a year on social media. All products will also be 20% off during that time.

A family-run business, the new Buff City Soap is owned by local husband-and-wife duo, Spencer and Nancy Hart. Their son, Dustin, is the general manager of the location and will be assisting with the store’s daily operations.

“There is nothing out there in the market today like what we have here at Buff City Soap,” said Spencer Hart. “We know that Rye Brook’s local shoppers will appreciate our wide variety of customizable products and fragrances and can’t wait to open our doors for the first time.”

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.

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 Rye Brook store hours will be Monday - Saturday 10:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m., and Sunday Noon to 5:00 p.m.
