Company History

In 1948 Vend-Rite Manufacturing created the Kleenex tissue vender. These venders sold a pocket pack of tissues for 5¢. Since that time we have produced venders to dispense batteries, note paper, pencils, hot chocolate, soup, crackers, personal hygiene items, panty hose, candy, laundry products and plastic bags.

For over sixty years Vend-Rite’s focus has been to provide the Coin Laundry Industry with the very best in Vending Equipment. During this time, we have built, redesigned, created, and introduced more new venders to satisfy the needs of the Coin Laundry Industry than all others combined.

Our Goal: Complete Customer Satisfaction. We offer variety, versatility, and inventory to provide you with timely delivery. Backed with technical support that provides solutions over the phone and the ability to ship parts the same day.

Vend Right with Vend-Rite carries with it the vision of the company’s founder, Mr. R.J. (Dick) Tennes. “This is not just a catchy phrase; it’s our way of doing business, our commitment to your vending needs”.  ”I believe that vision is still alive in every vender we’ve produced, and every shipment we’ve sent. This quality and spirit will continue to be part of everything we do.”  Vince Hansen, President.
