Ah is not that refreshing! (Har har!)
Everyone knows ABC or what is thought in the present day as a mall with a number of branches which options a number of (worldwide and native) manufacturers but additionally a giant ABC store as effectively (which itself represents manufacturers distinct from these exterior of it but inside its premises), however which doesn’t have its personal ABC branded merchandise.
Properly that very same ABC which had a significant retailer in Bab Idriss – the shop nonetheless exists however is small in comparison with its flagships in Dbayeh, Achrafieh and Verdun – was within the soap-making or not less than soap-selling enterprise. The cleaning soap in query is the “saboun baladi” in any other case referred to as “saboun Naboulsi” as a result of it was made in Nablus in Palestine (or just “Naboulsi” in Egypt and different international locations) which is usually referred to as “conventional cleaning soap”. Nevertheless to distinguish every model, the cleaning soap needed to be stamped for the emblem to establish the top product.
For this, a particular machine (mainly a picket stick to the emblem on high of it in “reverse”) had for use. Credit score goes for Lebanon_dekkene on Instagram for locating the stamping machine which is now lacking the letter “B” from the ABC brand however which instantly tells you which ones model it was anyhow.
ABC used that brand for therefore a few years earlier than rebranding (circa 2003-4). Which is a pity in the event you ask me.
Right here is the outdated ABC brand which I took from an outdated promoting of theirs.
As a small last notice, since conventional cleaning soap is made basically out of oils, I take advantage of it as a substitute of shampoo because it eliminates dandruff (oils have this capability to nourish the scalp!).
