Founded in 2012 in Snohomish, Washington, the Snohomish Soap Company makes organic handmade soap, and is one of seven companies recently chosen from over 60 applicants to work under Fledge, a social enterprise incubator in Seattle. Snohomish was founded by Cindy Todd, who was looking for a creative way to support her family after the economic recession left her unemployed, and now that they are on their feet, Todd is dedicated to employing stay-at-home mothers to make the soap.
The Snohomish Soap Company is dedicated to keeping its soaps "pure, essential, and beautiful," and distributes its soap through a women-powered manufacturing network. Inspired by the beauty of the world, Snohomish aims to capture this in their products by using essential oils and all-natural ingredients.
