Dr. Bronner's was founded in 1948 by Emanuel Bronner , a master soapmaker who came from a German-Jewish family of soap makers. Emanuel used the labels of his organic soaps to spread a message of unity across divisions —encouraging people to see the community beyond religious and ethnic differences, saying, "We are all one—or we are not!"
Today, Dr. Bronner's remains a family-owned business that faithfully pursues the founder's vision. The brand creates the highest quality, environmentally friendly, and socially responsible products , and donates a portion of its profits to support a better world for all .
