Reggie Kelly

Founder & Owner @ KYVAN® Foods

About

Reggie Kelly is the Founder & Owner of KYVAN Foods. The four most important things to him begin with "F"...Faith, Family, Food. The fourth is Football, but not only from the standpoint of a fan, he enjoyed playing 13 seasons in the NFL with the Cincinnati Bengals and Atlanta Falcons. Several years ago, Reggie began planning for his career after the NFL by creating KYVAN Foods..a line of innovative, soul-stirring sauces and seasonings. While food products are at the core of the KYVAN brand, promoting togetherness for family and friends through shared meals is central to their vision. Reggie loves giving back to the community and helping kids is his passion. For years, he has volunteered as a coach in football and basketball where he teach athletes how to handle life lessons through sports and how to excel on and off the field through hard work and integrity. Because of his zeal for excellence, Reggie has been featured on Forbes, appeared on CBS Deals with Nate Burleson and Gayle King, nominated as one of the 50 best players in Cincinnati Bengals history, voted and recognized as a 2023 SEC Legend, and won the Ed Block Courage Award which is presented to NFL Players who exemplify courage in the midst of adversity. Reggie's motto is simple, yet affective: "If you do the little things right, the big things will follow!"
