About The Soap Guy

A wholesale manufacturer of cold-process handmade soap and bath products, selling soap loaves, soap bars, guest soap, loofah soap, goat milk and artisan soap, bath bombs, shower steamers, lotion, body butter, sugar scrub, bath salt, milk bath and mineral powder in bulk to retailers, jobbers, distributors and other resellers. Private and white labeling is available on all products, including custom labels made from a customer's logo, and orders ship by parcel or pallet from La Porte with overseas quotes on request. Olive oil soaps are vegan, while the goat milk and Greek yogurt bars are not; typical lead time on 1,000-5,000 bar orders is about two weeks. Returns within 30 days are refunded in full, and staff share best-seller fragrance lists and business-building advice for new sellers.

The business began in 2002, when the owners chose to focus on soap while many other crafters were moving into candle making; the original recipe still forms the basis of the formula used today. All soap is made in La Porte, Indiana, in a historic 100,000 square foot building constructed in 1915 as a meat slicer factory, the source of the local high school team name, the La Porte Slicers. Operations have scaled to thousands of bars a week, and the company credits much of its growth to word of mouth from repeat customers. Custom labels were offered from the start to give small operations access to private labeling that had previously been reserved for large companies.
