KiZE

KiZE was started back in 2013 when Jeff Ragan, our Founder & CEO, was helping people become the best version of themselves by creating work out routines, meal plans, etc. as a passion project. A common pain point that he saw with his clients was that eating healthy was inconvenient, time consuming, expensive, etc. and he wanted to make that easier and more enjoyable. He started making 4 ingredient protein balls (peanut butter, honey, oats, protein) for them to enjoy between meals. Everyone LOVED them, so he started playing around with a few more recipes and quickly realized how there weren't too many simple ingredient, great tasting snacks out there. After putting a business plan together, Jeff took a leap of faith and quit his full time job to start KiZE out of his kitchen. Lead with a desire to help others, Jeff's goal was to continue making simple ingredient, great tasting snacks while making an impact within the community. Thanks to the incredible love and support from people over the years, and our unwaivering faith, hard work, and a little bit of luck, we now have a nationally distributed brand. Additionally, as a way to stay afloat during the pandemic, we began entertaining contract manufacturing partnerships. We now produce 25+ SKUs for 5+ brands and are in the process of moving into our brand new facility, where we will have up to 4+ production lines by the end of 2026. Changing lives for the better will continue to be the core of why we do what we do, and we're excited for this next chapter of growth and impact!
