True Veteran Leadership

Learn proven strategies from a real industry leader

Kevin Grundy has spent more than four decades in vending and breakroom services — building routes, placing machines, negotiating locations, and adapting through every shift the industry has thrown at operators, from glass-front machines to micro markets to today's smart stores. He supports Vanguard Vending to give the next generation of operators the playbook he wishes he'd had: real numbers, guaranteed locations, and a network of peers who actually pick up the phone. No franchise fees, and no fluff, just a trusted place to learn the business and grow it.

The truth matters

Bringing truth to new and aspiring operators

Running a successful vending business takes real work. It can be hard, especially when you're starting out.

Never trust an online guru claiming that vending is an easy source of passive income.

Though it is true it’s possible to start a vending business as a side hustle, do not expect it to be an easy, completely hands-off source of income.
