LÜFKA began at local farmers markets, long before we had a storefront.
We started by selling our handmade exfoliating washcloths. They were vegan, biodegradable, and made with intention. Customers loved them, but they kept asking the same question: “Do you sell soap?”
That question changed everything.
We began making soap, then body scrubs, lotions, bath bombs, toothpaste, and more. As we kept growing, we realized something important. If we were going to create products we truly believed in, we also needed to rethink how they were sold.
That’s when the idea for a refill store was born.
We wanted a space where people could buy natural bath, body, and personal care products in bulk, refill their containers, and reduce waste without sacrificing quality. From there, LÜFKA expanded beyond personal care into laundry powder, all-purpose cleaners, hand sanitizer, candle refills, and everyday essentials for the home.
From the beginning, LÜFKA has been hands on. Both of us, Parosh and Kelly, worked seven days a week, often twelve hours a day, making products in tore and spending time with our customers. Those conversations shaped LÜFKA into what it is today.
What started at a farmers market is now two storefronts. Our first location opened in Tampa, and we recently expanded to Orlando.
LÜFKA continues to grow, but our purpose stays the same: to create honest, thoughtfully made products, reduce unnecessary waste, and offer a better way to care for yourself and your home.
