Concept Description

Discover the Magnolia Experience

At Magnolia, every product tells a story of craftsmanship, care, and community. Our entire line—from soaps and bath bombs to laundry wash and skincare—is handcrafted in-store using plant-based ingredients. No harsh chemicals. No fillers. Just clean, effective formulas that customers can feel good about using every day.

But Magnolia is more than a retail store—it’s a sensory experience. Each location invites customers to see, smell, and participate in the creative process, from watching products being made to joining hands-on workshops like soap pouring and candle making. It’s community-centered retail at its finest.

For franchise owners, Magnolia offers a proven, turnkey business model backed by comprehensive training, ongoing support, and exclusive access to our proprietary product line. Whether you’re new to business ownership or an experienced entrepreneur, you’ll have everything you need to thrive.

As a woman-founded, family-first brand, Magnolia is built on empowerment and purpose. Our franchisees—nurses, teachers, real estate professionals, and more—bring their unique stories and passions to the Magnolia family, creating meaningful businesses that make a difference in their communities.

History:

At Magnolia Soap and Bath Company, we are committed to providing safe, effective and irresistibly indulgent products you can trust. Crafted from plant-based ingredients, everything we create exudes joy and luxury, and offers a sensorial experience that leaves your skin feeling soft, nourished and cared for.

Born in 2018 out of a mother’s desire to find safer alternatives for her daughter’s sensitive skin, founder Magen Bynum’s personal journey inspires our commitment to safety and purity. We recognize the lack of transparency surrounding ingredients in many commonly used brands and the negative impacts that can have on individuals with skin sensitivities. So, we created a solution.
