Vend Tech International Inc. (VTI), doing business as Naturals2Go, was founded in 1988 in Idaho Falls, Idaho by Ray Peterson who had an idea for a vending machine that would rotate to display selections. For nearly 40 years, the company has steadily become a significant influencer in the vending market.
Under the familiar brand name of Naturals2Go and VTI, our legal entity, we lead the industry in snack and drink vending business opportunities. As a legal entity, under the brand names of Naturals2Go, Naturals2Grow and Naturals2Go+, VTI will continue this long tradition of creating new markets and opening new opportunities in the convenience services industry in North America, the United Kingdom, and Canada.
VTI and all entities are privately owned. We are operated by a leadership team with a rich background in franchising, vending, engineering, and business growth. Many of our leadership team, and employees, are or have been vending business and convenience services owner-operators.
Naturals2Go is our familiar corporate brand entity, launched in 2010 in response to consumer demands for healthy, convenient, better-for-you snacks and drinks.
Through this diversification to better serve customers, we position ourselves to take advantage of changing trends in snack and drink markets, employing emerging technology that enables vending operators to be more efficient in running successful vending businesses. Naturals2Go created the now popular “healthy vending” market in response to consumer demand for fresher convenience food. To date we have launched over 2,000 entrepreneurs and placed over 20,000 machines in the United States.
With increasing pressures to supplement household incomes or find new ways to improve lives in constrained times, President Heath Falzarano has made it clear that our signature vending business opportunity should be accessible to anyone seeking a financial opportunity. And any business seeking better convenience options should be able to have access with the best service and support behind it.
The company continually innovates—not just in product offerings, but also in customer service, refined onboarding, training, and technical and business support so owner-operators of the vending businesses have all the tools required for success.
In 2018, Heath Falzarano took on the position of President of Vend Tech International / Naturals2Go with the retirement of former President and CEO, Randy Francis. Francis’ 30 years leading the company left a foundation that paved the way for Falzarano to evolve the organization – not just to the next level but to stand alone in a competitive market.
