Slovend is a small company with an old-fashioned idea: that a vending machine can be beautiful, well-kept, and genuinely good to find.
Slovend is the work of people who believe the everyday is worth doing well. We keep one vending machine — Nori, at Arden Fair in Sacramento — stocked with care and watched over by the lucky cat, and we're building Vendai, an AI layer that lets operators talk to their whole fleet in plain language.
We're a subsidiary of FutureNow, Inc., a mentorship collective in Sheridan, Wyoming built on a single idea: that the right partnership can unlock the full potential in people — and in the things they build. Slovend is where that conviction meets the real world.
The same care FutureNow gives to growing founders, we give to a machine on a mall floor: show up, tend it well, and let good fortune follow.
