Buff City Soap, a Southern-based lifestyle brand changing the way people buy their everyday soap by providing plant-based alternatives, will be opening its first soap ‘makery’ in Brighton on July 15. Located at 311 W Main St., Buff City Soap is known for its handmade, plant-based soap and body products.
The newly constructed location, featuring an outdoor patio, will be opened by local owner and Brighton native, Christopher Klebba, who also owns Single Barrel Social on Grand River Avenue in Brighton. Klebba says he is looking forward to finding ways to involve his new business in the local community.
“This opening is very special to me because of the deep roots I have here in Brighton,” said Klebba. “We are thrilled to showcase the experiential nature of the soap making business and offer our local customers a wholesome, natural alternative to their typical soap and bath products.”
Unlike supermarket alternatives, Buff City Soap creates high-quality products free of harsh chemicals, detergents, dyes, 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 the transparency of ingredients and process.
Each Buff City Soap store offers traditional soap bars, body butters, shower oils, and bath bombs, along with a facial care line, men’s care product line, plant-based laundry detergent, pet care products and bath accessories. Each shop includes a Makery, where employees handcraft each product in-store and customers can customize their products. Furthering its customization promise, the shops also host birthday parties, ladies’ nights and other group events.
