SOAP HISTORY
Aleppo laurel soap is named after the city in which it was first made - Aleppo, Syria. The centuries-old formula is revered by people from all over the world for its soothing benefits and all natural ingredients. Laurel oil is considered Syria’s “green gold,” every year the soap is manufactured from November to March after the olives and laurel berry fruit have been collected from the trees and turned into oil. Eachsoap bar takes one year to make.
SOCIAL IMPACT
Hassen has been in the laurel soap business since 1984, and has persevered despite the lack of resources due to the war in Syria. Connecting his artisanal soaps to a global market helps strengthen the local farming community and contribute to Syria’s economic development. Upon arrival to our warehouse in LA, the soaps are individually packaged by hand and distributed across the U.S. Each soap purchase supports the advancement of artisan entrepreneurs, both in the U.S. and the Middle East.
