Perfyās story starts years ago when a series of tragic events happened in my life.
In 2017, my mom was diagnosed with cancer. Later that year, my older brother Ralph had a stroke and is still partially paralyzed. In 2018, I lost my best friend Scott to an accidental fentanyl overdose andĀ my cousin to diabetes. In 2020, I lost my old roommate of 5 years to suicide.
Then the pandemic hit.
And in that same time frame, I lost another dozen friends. As a result, I developed some terrible habits, put on a bunch of weight, and developed pre-diabetes (which Iāve since reversed). I needed to climb my way out. And in doing so, I wanted to help others going through what I was going through.
So, I created Perfy. A low-sugar sodaĀ for a happy youā¢.Ā And I named it after my mom, who was thankfully here to see it until 12/11/23.
When I was just two years old, Iād say, āHey, ma youāre Perfy.ā So, I named the company after her.Ā
I hope you enjoy Perfy as much as I do. And with each can, we'll honorĀ our loved ones.Ā
