The Posikeras were inspired to take a leap of faith and start a business of their own after introducing their friends to their colourful twist on the traditional perogy.

Anna Posikera and her mother are caught in a candid moment while making stuffed dumplings called perogies. The family set up a perogy-making business after moving to Calgary post Russia's invasion of Ukraine. For Anna and Vladimir Posikera, leaving Ukraine to escape the war and starting afresh in Calgary was a life-changing decision that was difficult to execute.

"We had to leave Ukraine just to save our kids, to save our life. We had just only two packs of toys for kids and that's it," Anna said. "Everyone in Ukraine make perogies. Everyone. And there is a lot of different recipes, variation, fillings," Anna said. The Posikeras were inspired to take a leap of faith and start a business of their own, the Tisto Factory.

Vladimir took it upon himself to make food deliveries after working all day, hoping to reach more customers.
