Interview with Anna Postek, owner
Q: How did you get involved in this business?
:I tried to find pierogis that reminded me of home. With no luck, I decided to start my own business and make them as traditional as possible.
Q: What distinguishes you from other businesses in your category?
:We pay attention to quality by sourcing our produce from local Colorado farmers, using organic flour and eggs for the dough and artisan farmers cheese made by a Polish cheese-maker in Chicago for the filling. We also make the fillings in smaller batches to keep the spices even and the flavor consistent.
Q: What do you like best about your line of work?
:That the product I make is 100 percent real, and it makes me feel good that I can share it with others.
Q: What is your business’ biggest challenge?
:To introduce pierogis to people that are not familiar with this product. Not only are they convenient to prepare but also healthy and loved by both adults and kids. I call them the next Colorado tacos.
Q: Something people might be surprised to learn about you or your business:
:My mission is to introduce a product that is healthy, natural and convenient. In our busy lives, we don’t have enough time to make each dinner quick and healthy.
