Dear Reader
Production |
Ghar Soap is an indigenous Syrian product, with its production centres mainly concentrated in Aleppo and the surrounding olive oil producing regions. There are almost 50 fully equipped soap workshops producing as much as 20,000 tons of Ghar Soap in a season. While a few establishments operate in Idlib and Ifreen, the majority are in Aleppo - some occupying premises as old as the industry itself. Most of the olive oil (approximately 80%) used in Ghar Soap manufacture is locally produced pumice oil and second quality oil. Bayberry oil is mostly imported from Turkey, as local supplies are insufficient for the needs of the industry.
