Buff City Soap Opening First Oxford Soap Makery

Oxford, Miss. – Buff City Soap – a rapidly expanding handmade soap shop that makes 100% plant-based soaps, bath bombs, skincare products, and even laundry soap – has set its sights on Mississippi for expansion. The brand will be opening its newest soap makery in Oxford at 400 South Lamar, Suite B, and is slated to open on October 23. This will be the brand’s third soap makery in the Magnolia State. The new soap makery will be owned by father-and-son duo Rudy and Kevin Herzke, who also own Buff City Soap locations in Germantown, and Collierville, Tennessee.

“It is always exciting to bring Buff City Soap to a new market because we provide an experience unlike anything else in the industry” stated Kevin. “When people walk through our doors, they get to see how their soap is made and what goes into each product which is a really unique experience and something that our customers love about the brand.”

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.

“I am very passionate about the Buff City Soap brand and am thrilled to be able to share Buff City’s plant-based products with more people,” said Rudy. “Oxford is the perfect place for Buff City Soap and we can’t wait to open our doors and begin serving the Oxford community.”

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.

Buff City Soap’s new hours are Monday – Saturday 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday 12 p.m. to 5 p.m.
