A Bite of Home…

Orly Peters, founder of Habuyta.

When my family arrived in the U.S. in 2015 for my husband’s career, as immigrants with 3 kids, we felt lost.
We experienced loneliness and disconnection from home and our community.

Cooking homemade-style food made a positive impact on my family's adjustment to our new life.

I began to recreate foods that tasted like home for my family, embarking on a journey to find such foods around St. Louis.

However, we constantly faced challenges due to limited access to ingredients.

Simultaneously, the food available in restaurants didn't quite match the authentic flavors and tastes we were accustomed to back home.

During this time, I partnered with a local home cook to understand the journey of launching a business and to address this issue. While doing so, I realized the real gaps and challenges that exist in the market for home cooks, and why it is so hard to launch a food business.

Through my experience, coupled with helping my home cook friend with her business, I identified the root problem and launched Habuyta - a SaaS platform to support home cooks and help them launch their businesses and reach their communities easily, smoothly, and independently.

So, what are you waiting for? Come and experience a piece of home with Habuyta.
