A little bit about us.
We're a cosy, family-owned furniture business where every member of our team is part of the family! We all have a deep passion for what we do and strive to provide excellent service and products to our customers. Our journey began in 2013 in the heart of The city of Kingston upon Hull.
Trina, drew inspiration from her two sons, Ryan and Daniel, which led to the creation of our name, Rydan. If you're curious to learn more about who we are or just want to put faces to our names, check out the short bios we've put together for each of us below!
Meet The Team,

Trina
I founded the business in 2013 with the encouragement and support of my husband, Dave. Specialising in interior design and project management. My passion lies in working closely with people to bring their desires and visions to life. I love to create spaces that not only reflect our client's personal style but also meet their functional needs. I love spending time with my family and friends and taking long walks with our dog, Henri.

Daniel
My day to day tasks involve sourcing and designining new products, working with factories and suppliers worldwide. I also help with customer service and sales enquirys. I also assist with deliverys and warehousing when needed, as we are a small family company we all help each other where we can. Outside of work I love playing golf with my friends and beating David haha.

Carl
Since leaving school I have spent my working life in retail, mainly at management level. Having worked for many big retailers I decided to change direction and have found my way to Rydan where my role is delivering your order to you come rain or shine, manage incoming and outgoing stock and many other tasks. Outside of work you will generally find me on a beach or by the pool sipping a cocktail whilst trying to top up my tan! When a holiday isn’t possible, spending time in the garden is the next best thing, especially when the sun is shining.

Paul
I have spent my working life serving my country, 12 years in the RAF based around the world and 20 years in the police. I retired from the police in 2021 and moved back to Hull . After taking a couple of years off from work I started working for Rydan as part of the delivery team after my sister in law convinced to join the family business. My family is a big part of my life outside of work having spent so many years working away from home. I am a keen baker often supplying cakes and treats.

Nico & Henri
Our dogs are a huge part of our family and spend time in the office form time to time, Nico will likely be asleep and Henri waiting for all of your attention. If you come and visit us your more than welcome to bring your dog when you visit.

David
Even though I don't work at Rydan full-time, I'm always here to lend a hand to my wife and son whenever they need it. Whether it's managing the books or stepping in to keep Daniel in line when he's arguing with his mum haha , I'm there to support our family business in any way I can, behind the scenes.
