In the organic soap-making, there is significant room for
Research and Development (R&D), allowing creators to
elevate their products. By exploring a variety of high-
quality, sustainably sourced ingredients, soap makers can
refine their formulations, ensuring superior texture and
benefits. Testing different soap bases, such as coconut or
olive oil, alongside shea butter, can offer diverse results.
Furthermore, formulating soaps to target specific skin
concerns, like acne or dryness, by using essential oils such
as tea tree or chamomile extract, can set the product apart.
Integrating antioxidant-rich extracts, like green tea or
rosehip, can also enhance the soap’s anti-aging properties.
Ensuring that the soap is not only effective but also free of
irritation through patch testing becomes essential in
13
delivering a gentle, high-performance product. Alongside
ingredient experimentation, soap makers can innovate with
eco-friendly packaging and natural colorants to improve the
aesthetic appeal and sustainability of their soaps.
Researching natural preservatives or techniques to enhance
shelf life and performance, such as testing the soap's lather,
moisturizing quality, and resistance to degradation, is also
crucial.
To finance the development and production of organic
soap, a combination of personal savings, small loans from
family or friends, and crowdfunding could be used initially
to cover the costs of raw materials and setting up
production. As the product gains traction, additional
funding might come from small business loans, investors,
or grants aimed at supporting eco-friendly startups. For
R&D suppliers, organic ingredients like essential oils,
fragrance oils, botanical extracts, and soap bases could be
sourced from trusted local distributors or international
suppliers focused on sustainability. In Albay, particularly in
areas like Legazpi City or Daraga, there are opportunities to
collaborate with local farms or agricultural cooperatives to
obtain fresh, organic botanicals and extracts. These
14
partnerships would not only provide high-quality
ingredients but also support the local community and align
with the brand’s commitment to sustainability and organic
practices.
2.2 SUPPIER AND RAW MATERIALS
By supporting local producer and distributor while
creating a good quality organic soap. the fragrance oil and
essential oil are bought from Janah essential oil in Legaspi
city a local distributor here in Albay, the Buela’s local
flower shop here in San Lorenzo tabaco city known for its
good quality and fresh flowers. And the base packing, that
came from Melar packaging supplies located at Bonot
Legaspi city, Albay known for its different and unique base
packaging.

3. ORGANIZATIONAL PLAN
3.1 FORM OF BUSINESS ORGANIZATION
Business Name: REZE ORGANIC SOAP
Legal Structure: A sole proprietorship is selected due to its
simplicity, ease of management, and cost-effectiveness.
This structure provides the owner with full control over
business decisions and operations while minimizing startup
costs. Additionally, it requires fewer legal formalities and
less paperwork compared to other business structures. The
owner has direct access to profits without the need to share
with partners or shareholders. This structure also allows for
quick decision-making, making it ideal for a small-scale
business focused on handcrafted organic soaps. However,
the owner assumes full liability for business debts and
obligations, which should be carefully managed through
proper financial planning and risk assessment.
