Company founded
1987
The Elora Soap Company was founded in 1987 in Elora, Ontario, Canada by John & Karen Kimpel. We moved to Paisley, Ontario in 1990, to a century building, which we have been renovating ever since. There we live, make soap, and operate a retail store - it s a fun place - you can write on the wall, chalk on the sidewalk, play with the tin-toys...oh, and find out a lot about soap - we are open 7 days a week. We have 2 kids, Ben (19) & Sierra (15), 1 dog, Shadow (mostly lab), and 2 cats, Casper (white), and Cassiopoeia (tabby).
