A decade ago, trekking from a log cabin to a rural post office in Pennsylvania, the first dozen orders from on-line buyers of Organic-Grooming body products, (shaving cream, aftershave balm and soap) were shipped. Still privately held by its original owners Lisa and Luke Vukmer, Organic-Grooming now annually ships thousands of cases of vegan and organic certified men's body products, from cologne and shaving cream, aftershave balm, deodorant, and soaps, all in 100 percent recycled packaging, to a wide variety of retailers and distributors. Sales of the eco-friendly products have doubled over the last year.
Primarily purchased by environmentally sensitive consumers, (but, according to buyers' emails, many claim the stuff smells sexy), Organic-Grooming product contents been reviewed, tested and third-party certified to be 100% vegan and organic. Documentation can be found at http://www.herbancowboy.com. The Organic-Grooming product line is at Drugstore.com, The Vitamin Shoppe, Whole Foods Market, VeganEssentials, Amazon.com, The Vitamin Cottage and specialty retailers. Product prices range from $8 to $40.
What has grown from a tiny endeavor, to a thriving company, which maintains its core philosophy: Make it EASY to SWITCH to healthy grooming products because making small changes in our everyday lives makes a long term, global difference.
