What's your business, and who are your customers?
DeForest Soap Co. is a family-owned and operated natural bar soap producer. We were founded on the idea that what you put on your body is as important as what you put in it. There was a time when people had a connection to their purveyors, and the goods that they offered were simple and pure.
DeForest Soap Co. strives to provide a natural cleaning bar with ingredients you can pronounce, oils that nourish your body, and essential extracts to delight your senses. Our products are of high quality, made in small batches using time-honored traditions slowly with care and only the best natural ingredients.
Tell us about yourself
We were looking for a more natural soap product that would lather well, rinse clearly, and, most importantly, clean our bodies. It took over one year of formula experimentation to reach our goal. We enjoy the interaction with our customers and the knowledge that we provide them with a quality product.
