Rapids Vending Company
Where Convenience Meets Community
Rapids Vending Company has been locally-owned and family-operated since 1950. Today, we partner with 365 Retail Markets to bring Micro Markets and Smart Market vending machines to businesses and breakrooms across Eastern Iowa.
How It Works
Micro Markets and Smart Markets offer a modern alternative to traditional vending—providing employees with a wider variety of products in an open, self-serve format. Instead of outdated machines with limited options, these systems use technology to enable quick, secure purchases and real-time inventory tracking.
It’s a hassle-free way to enhance your building or breakroom—at no cost to you.
