“The company is now experiencing a surge in client demand right across our range of soap bases, as hand washing increases around the globe; and [it] is certainly something we're ready for,” explains Sales and Marketing Director James Clews. “The sales process can carry a long latency as with soap products, it can take several months to arrive at its destination.
