Our Story

As residents of Winnipeg, we understand the daily challenges of apartment living. Late-night cravings, forgotten essentials, and the inconvenience of running to the store for simple items inspired us to create a better solution.

Living in modern apartments, we noticed a gap between the convenience residents expected and what was actually available. Traditional vending machines were outdated, unreliable, and limited in their offerings.

We’re not trying to act like the biggest vending company out there... we’re not. But what we do know is what residents actually want, because we’ve lived the same lifestyle and felt the same frustrations. We’ve used the old vending machines. We’ve been stuck choosing between chips or… more chips. We’ve run out of small essentials at the worst times. And we’ve seen how modern buildings look great on the outside but still lack simple, everyday convenience on the inside. That’s the gap we’re filling. We’re not coming in with decades of industry experience, we’re coming in with better ideas. We’re willing to innovate, pay attention, and deliver something that feels modern and thoughtful, not stale and outdated.
