Bath & Body Works

Bath & Body Works is a well-known American retail chain specializing in bath and beauty products, including soaps, lotions, fragrances, and candles. Founded in 1990 in New Albany, Ohio, it began as the beauty line for Express, Inc. and quickly grew to become a dominant force in the American personal care market. The company is recognized for its wide variety of scents, seasonal product lines, and affordable prices, which have contributed to its enduring popularity and expansion across North America and beyond. Bath & Body Works has successfully cultivated a loyal customer base with its focus on creating accessible luxury fragrance experiences.

Bath & Body Works emphasizes a predominantly U.S.-based supply chain, which gives them a competitive edge in delivering products to customers quickly. While specific details on all manufacturing locations can be challenging to pin down, the company has made significant efforts to increase domestic production. A substantial portion of their manufacturing and related operations are based in Ohio, near their headquarters. This strategic focus on a U.S.-based supply chain allows Bath & Body Works to be more agile in responding to customer trends and efficiently deliver its popular and ever-changing product lines.
