Trade and Wholesale Handmade Soap

Retail, mail-order, promotional gifts

We are delighted to receive wholesale and trade enquiries for soap for retail or mail-order sale or uses such as promotional gifts, giveaways and thank-you presents. Our soaps are sold by a growing and varied list of independent shops and traders in Norfolk and much further afield, both under our name and as own-label products.

We offer effective trade discounts and a low minimum order with the aim of making it easy and profitable for you to carry our products. For more information, please complete our Trade Enquiry Form or call us on (01328) 711717.

Hotels, Guest Houses, B&Bs, Spas,
Health Centres and Clubs

Many hotels and guest houses now go to great lengths to give their guests the very best... but you're not really treating them if you give them the the cheapest mass-produced commerical soap you can find. We now regularly supply top-quality hotels, guesthouses and spas, both locally and as far afield as London, Thailand and the Maldives.

We offer a full range, from room-size guest soap bars to toiletries such as shower and bath gel to full-size bars and gift boxes to sell or give away in reception. And because we pack and label by hand, we are able to economically produce custom labelling for even the smallest bed and breakfast so that your guests can see and perhaps take home your name and message rather than someone else's.

Finally, we're only too aware just how much soap a busy medium or large size hotel goes through. Our successful contracts with busy and larger hotels in recent years clearly demonstrate that we can cope reliably with large, regular orders and still deliver a quality hand-made product.

Own-brand and customised labels

We are happy to produce custom-labelled soaps to suit your needs, such as own-brand mail-order or shop products, soap named to match your guest house or hotel, sales or advertising promotions for use as give-aways at exhibitions or conferences or customised gifts or wedding favours. Short-runs are not a problem so this option is available even to the smallest concern or for one-off events or promotions. We can create artwork for the labels for you or use your own artwork or print (after agreeing a format) and we can manage most of the ways there are to wrap, label and package a bar of soap.

Customers should be aware that there are certain legal requirements for soap labels which must be met, including an ingredients listing in a prescribed format, a batch number and contact details for the actual manufacturer. These can usually be tucked away on the back or side of the soap. Our private or custom labels typically include at least a manufacturer's credit such as 'Handmade for Company X by The Natural Soap Company, Norfolk, UK'.

Soap Loaves

We regularly supply soap in square or round loaves or straight from the mould raw slabs. Some traders like this format because they can cut and sell the soap by weight in front of their customers and it emphasises the handmade nature of the product. We do usually point out to new customers though that while this format is indeed 'showy', it isn't always convienient for practical use. It's easier to shower with one of our carefully cut and chamfered bath-size bars than it is to use a half-pound square lump. For this reason, we suggest you may want to purchase a small number of loaves for display and effect but keep a ready-stock of wrapped bars for those customers who prefer them.
