Started at Egerton University in 2018. KEBS certified in 2023. Incubated at KIRDI. Built to nourish Kenyan families one bowl at a time.

Ryan's is a flagship consumer brand under James & Ben Enterprise, delivering nutritious, pre-cooked, convenient foods from locally sourced grains. We launched with Ryan Instant Porridge and are expanding into a full family of convenient food products.
Incubated at KIRDI, we're committed to addressing malnutrition, dietary gaps and time constraints faced by urban and peri-urban households across Kenya.
"We did the labor, so you can just feel the love and kindness."
Ryan's was born from the belief that busy Kenyan families deserve nutritious, convenient porridge that doesn't compromise on quality or cultural values. Every pack is KEBS certified and made from locally sourced ingredients.
Product concept validated. Limited machinery meant the dream couldn't yet become reality โ but the mission was set.
The team joins the Kenya Industrial Research and Development Institute under contract manufacturing, bringing the product to life.
