OurStory
First founded in 2005 by Marie-Eve Lejour and Sébastien Boismenu, Savonnerie des Diligences was born from a dream of creating natural soaps and body products with love, creativity and thoroughness. During our first few years, we worked on the essence of our company and began a responsible development, which already shone through partnerships with companies sharing the same values as us. Among our first clients were Spa Eastman, Sépaq, Jardin botanique and Biodôme de Montréal.
In 2012, we had the crazy idea of associating each of our soaps with a story and a character. It was a colossal project that took about six months and 2,000 hours to complete, and that gave birth to our Legends! To discover the legends, click here! In early 2013, Marie-Eve Lejour became the sole owner of Savonnerie des Diligences.
To this day, Savonnerie des Diligences manufactures its own catalog of about 100 products at its Bolton-Est factory and distributes to about 350 resellers in Quebec. In addition, we manufacture custom products for many local companies with similar values to ours. La Savonnerie des Diligences welcomes its customers directly to its Eastman boutique in a building shared with the LA Station café. It's a must for all tourists in the area!
