Founder & CEO, Bowen Investments & King B Distribution

Who Is Ryan Bowen?

Ryan Bowen is a nationally recognized entrepreneur, philanthropist, and brand builder with a track record of turning bold ideas into industry-leading companies. He is the Founder & CEO of King B Distribution, the powerhouse behind Kush Kube, Kratom Kube, Shroom Kube, and LFG Kratom—a fast-growing portfolio of premium legal THC, kratom, and mushroom-based products. In 2024, King B Distribution was honored with 1st Place for Best Utah Cannabis Edibles, further establishing its reputation as a category leader.

In hospitality, Ryan is the driving force behind award-winning concepts like Sundays Best, Sunday School, and Brunch Me Hard—a brunch empire that’s racked up multiple accolades including best brunch, best cocktails, and best casual brunch across consecutive years. He also co-owns Pica Rica BBQ, which was named Best New Concept of 2025 and ranked as the #7 BBQ restaurant in the country, in addition to taking 1st Place for Best Barbecue Restaurant in 2024.

Outside of food and beverage, Ryan is a partner in BCC Construction, a commercial development firm, and a key investor in Icon Meals, a nationally distributed meal prep company.

Earlier in his career, Ryan founded and led Pure Water Solutions of America, which became the largest office drinking water company in the United States. After 26 years of growth and multiple industry awards, he exited the business in what became the largest independent water company sale in U.S. history.

Despite his wide business footprint, Ryan has always remained deeply committed to service—speaking at the Utah State Prison, rehabs, and stadiums, as well as donating to hundreds of families each holiday season, and giving back consistently to his hometown of Tooele, Utah.

Known for his grit, generosity, and relentless pursuit of excellence, Ryan continues to build brands that serve, inspire, and lead.
