About CNRY Group
Prepared to perform. Built to bounce back.
Our ethos is simple: Prepare • Equip • Thrive. We help leaders turn operational clarity into everyday practice—so teams move faster, audits get easier, and growth feels calm.
Principles we live by
Clarity first. A clear picture beats a longer report.
Simple scales. The fewer steps it takes to do the right thing, the more likely it happens.
Neutral and transparent. We disclose conflicts and document decisions.
Evidence matters. If it isn’t captured, it didn’t happen—for auditors or for learning.
People over process. Tools support teams; they don’t replace them.
Vendor‑neutral by design
We do not take commissions from preferred vendors. Where partners are involved, we disclose relationships and document decisions so you can defend them to boards, insurers, and regulators. We operate confidentially and maintain a disclosed conflict‑of‑interest register for full transparency.
Our story
CNRY was forged in the field. Founder Ryan Karatimus spent more than a decade in production and operations—starting on the shop floor, then running his own roastery, and later building Usonian, a firm dedicated to equipment sourcing, installation, and technical service. Working with roasting and manufacturing businesses internationally, he saw the same patterns repeat: fragmented systems, overlooked risks, and no clear playbooks to fall back on. CNRY Group was built to change that—translating real‑world lessons into structured, ISO‑aligned frameworks designed for specialty and advanced manufacturers who value resilience as much as quality.
About Ryan
Operator turned systems‑builder. Ryan spent a decade installing, servicing, and standardizing specialty‑manufacturing operations across North America and Europe. CNRY blends that hands‑on pragmatism with ISO‑aligned rigor and design‑grade deliverables.
