Family History

In 1933 Herbert Ryan along with his brother, Gus, and Herb’s son, Alan, set up R&R with the help of an old friend, Leo Robins, hence the name R&R. The first garments were cleaned and pressed in the shop window on the corner of Montague and Auburn Street’s in Goulburn. To clean a suit cost four and sixpence.

In 1954, Herbert Ryan died and Alan brought four of his sons into the rapidly expanding business — Peter, Gary, Brendan and Lynton. Peter Ryan took the business from a larger, extended family concern to a more immediate family business when he opened Canberra Dry Cleaners at Cooleman Court, Weston in 1985.
