Following a strong presence at The NAMA Show 2025, VendTech International returns to the NAMA Show 2026 with an even stronger connected vision of what true operator success looks like — built from an integrated, operator-first ecosystem and an ethos that VendTech’s success is only judged by the success of their customers.

At Booth #237, VendTech will showcase how its For Operators, By Operators approach continues to evolve — supporting both new entrepreneurs and experienced operators at every stage of growth, every size of business. From software and smart retail technology to equipment, markets, product and operator support, VendTech brings everything together into one cohesive focus – designing solutions that are proven to work in the real world.

From 2025 to 2026: Concept to Connection
In 2025, VendTech introduced the idea of a “one-stop shop.” In 2026, that vision comes to life as a fully connected ecosystem.
Every solution on display has been shaped by real operator experience — tested, refined, and proven in the field before being brought to market.
This year’s focus is simple:
- Connection.
- Connecting systems.
- Connecting technology.
- Connecting operators to solutions that work — because they’ve been built and validated by operators themselves.
VendTech continues to define its role as where unattended retail truly comes together — supporting operators who are starting out, scaling up, or optimizing what they’ve already built.
VendTech International — For Operators, By Operators
VendTech International is the parent company of VendTech Technology, Naturals2Go, and Next Level Refresh (formerly Naturals2Go Plus) built on a simple principle:
Everything we create is to connect people and communities with solutions designed by operators, tested by operators, and built for operators.
This isn’t a tagline. It’s how we run the business. We invest so others don’t have to.
We don’t guess what works in unattended retail. We operate within it every day. Our teams run routes. Our staff own and operate machines. Our 7 Regional Operating Centers serve real customers, in real environments, across multiple markets.
That means every piece of equipment, every system, and every solution we bring to market is shaped by real-world experience – not theory.
We build from the operator’s perspective because we are operators too.
We test what we create in our own businesses first — refining, improving, and validating it before it ever reaches our customers. When it works in the field, we bring it forward with confidence, backed by a team that understands exactly what it takes to succeed.
Our success is measured by one thing: the success of the operators we serve.
That means helping people build businesses that are not only profitable, but sustainable, scalable and flexible. We drive businesses that create independence, long-term growth, and the ability to fulfill dreams.
Through VendTech Technology, operators gain access to a fully integrated ecosystem. This includes a unique VMS (VendXone), payment systems, kiosks, smart retail solutions, and equipment, markets, and pantry service designed for success.
Through Naturals2Go, entrepreneurs launch and grow with a proven program, industry-leading equipment, and a pathway to expand into micro markets, smart coolers, and beyond.
Through Next Level Refresh, we provide next level solutions to regional clients throughout the country while also using our own operations to continue to operate, test, and evolve solutions — helping ensure everything VendTech International offers is grounded in real performance, not promise.
This is what “For Operators, By Operators” means:
- Built for real people
- Making a real difference in companies and communities
- Built from real experience
- Proven in real environments
- Designed for real growth
Not just solutions — a system that really works because we work it ourselves.
