Our History
Founded in 1937 by Edward B. Beharry, The Beharry Group began as a small trading business in Georgetown. Through vision, resilience, and a relentless drive to serve, the business expanded into food manufacturing, building household brands that have become staples in kitchens across Guyana and the Caribbean. Over time, the Group diversified into new sectors that include automotive distribution, banking and insurance, and quick-service restaurants establishing itself as a trusted partner in both daily life and national development.
Now led by the third generation of Beharrys, the Group continues to evolve, merging tradition with innovation while staying true to its founding values: integrity, entrepreneurship, and commitment to community.
