New sales director at Westport’s Benebone

Benebone, a Westport-based brand of USA-made dog chews, has hired Ryann Grady as director of sales.

Before joining Benebone, Grady ran her Ry on the Fly business that provided clients with personalized transportation options for newly acquired pets or those campaigning on the national dog show circuit. Earlier in her career, she was a strategic account manager at Carnivore Meat Co. She is also an American Kennel Club judge and has shown dogs for over 30 years.

“I am excited to join the Benebone family and represent products that have high quality, vast versatility, and are accessible to all pet parents,” said Grady. “It’s clear that the Benebone team places a large emphasis on culture and delighting customers, which has always been extremely important to me. I look forward to being part of such a dynamic team whose product offerings have a runway with no end in sight!”
