Terms & conditions

Artisan Soap Works is not registered for GST. The below terms apply for resale with Artisan Soap Works labels only, for private label wholesale or bulk orders without packaging please enquire.

Pricing

  • Artisan Soap Works does not recommend a retail price. Stockists are to set a retail price suitable for their retail environment, or alternatively they can follow pricing on the Artisan Soap Works website. Stockists are encouraged to not sell our products below our website pricing.
  • We offer a wholesale price of 60% of the pricing on our website. Artisan Soap Works reserves the right to change website prices without notice when necessary as per manufacturing requirements.
  • Artisan Soap Works sells all soap ‘naked’ (label only).
  • We offer branded soap boxes for our artisan bars at $1.50 each and recommend these for a busy retail environment to ensure the integrity of each bar.
  • Soap such as salt bars, soap gems, charcoal rounds can be shrink wrapped at 50c per soap wrapped or packaged in kraft window boxes with a charge of $1.50-$2 per box packaged.

 

Order limits & products available

  • Minimum order value for wholesale orders is $150 (wholesale) per order unless otherwise agreed.
  • If ordering soap, a minimum of six (6) bars of the same variation must be ordered (exception are salt bars where the minimum is six (6) salt bars and types can be mixed).
  • As Artisan Soap Works is a micro business only, we reserve the right to decline orders that are beyond our production capacity and/or stock availability.
  • We highly encourage stockists to place more frequent orders several times per year to ensure stock is refreshed regularly and therefore high quality can be maintained.
  • The following products are excluded from wholesale: soap balls, micro soaps, sample packs, tiny soap packs, soap dishes, crochet accessories, seasonal items (Santa’s coal, Easter items, Soap pencils, teacher gifts), gift baskets, art soaps (soaps where the surface has been hand painted or dipped.
  • Custom orders (colours/scent/design) are available. The order minimum however will be a half of an entire batch (please enquire for quantities as batch size different for every product). We reserve the right to request a deposit before any custom orders are made.
  • Testers for products like scrubs, lip balms and bath salts can be provided. There will be an initial cost charged to the retailer ($1-$4). Artisan Soap Works can provide new product for freshening up of sample jars free of charge when a further order is placed.

 

Freight

  • Artisan Soap Works is based in Albany, Western Australia where there is only Australia Post or major freight companies such as Toll available. Artisan Soap Works usually uses Australia Post as carrier, however there are courier options for larger shipments.
  • Stockists are welcome to arrange freight with their preferred provider if they can access better rates this way.
  • The retailer will pay postage/freight as charged by Australia Post/courier plus a packing fee of $15-$30 depending on order size/packaging required/time spent etc. Due to the fragile nature of most of our products, careful packaging when posting is required, which consumes a lot of time and materials. The packing fee is not applicable for local deliveries/pickup.
  • Local delivery within 10km of Albany CBD is available for a fee of $10.
  • Local pickup from our workshop is available free of charge.
  • Payment of invoices is required before booking the postage label and shipping/pickup/delivery. Different arrangements will be available once the stockist has established an order history.

 

Processing time

  • Two-three (2-3) weeks turnaround time to fill an order if everything is in stock.
  • Four-five (4-5) weeks turnaround if products that don’t cure have to be made (e.g. bath bombs, shower steamers, creams).
  • Nine to ten (9-10) weeks turnaround time for soap custom orders and when soap is not in stock (to allow for making, curing and processing of soap).
  • Time frames stated are maximum times, usually orders get processed faster.
  • However, larger orders may take longer and applicable time frames will be discussed when the order has been received.
  • We will contact the retailer at the time when placing the order to inform of any wait times or to offer alternative products.
  • We encourage retailers to place orders as far in advance as practicable to avoid disappointment or wait times.

 

Marketing

  • The stockist is required to acknowledge Artisan Soap Works as the manufacturer of the products in any advertising that includes Artisan Soap Work products.
  • Since this is a business partnership we expect our products to be promoted on the stockists Facebook/Instagram channels. The stockist is required to tag @artisansoapworks and use the hashtag #artisansoapworks.
