Nusrat Ghani, MP for Sussex Weald, visited Waldron-based soap manufacturer The English Soap Company to catch up with Managing Director Oliver Butts and congratulate him on the company’s latest awards.
The English Soap Company is a family-run business based in the heart of Waldron countryside, where products are made on site before being sold through major UK and international retailers, hotel and gift suppliers. Since its launch in 2000, the business has been growing from strength to strength, also collaborating with Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew.
The company frequently features as finalist in many prestigious business awards across the country, having won several awards in the past including the Department for Transport’s Exporter of The Year Award, Family Business of the Year Award, and most recently the International Business of the Year Award at the Gatwick Diamond Business Awards in March 2025.
The English Soap Company’s range includes soaps, hand creams, hand sanitisers and perfumes
