SERVING THE VENDING, OCS, & FOOD SERVICE MANAGEMENT INDUSTRY IN mARYLAND & WASHINGTON DC.
ABOUT
The MD-DC Vending Association was formed in January of 1961 as an affiliated state council of the National Automatic Merchandising Association. Membership includes over fifty operator, supplier, broker, and distributor companies. Several opportunities each year, including a Fall Membership Meeting & a Spring Annual Meeting, provide a chance for members to share tricks of the trade & to learn about new products and services. As a member of the MD-DC Vending Association you will have the opportunity to exchange ideas & work together to help better the industry as a whole.
The MD-DC Vending Association is dedicated to promoting common business interests & maintain the general welfare of the automatic merchandising industry in your state. All while, improving the industry's service to the public, cooperating with government officials in advancing the public interest, & improving conditions within the industry.
Legislative Support: We monitor legislation that would have an adverse effect on our industry. This allows us to act before a legislator’s idea becomes law.
Security Committees: Our security committee alerts members whenever criminals appear to be targeting vending companies in their area. By sharing information and working with local law enforcement, these committees help to increase security awareness at the local level.
Publications: Membership lists, legislative bulletins, & meeting minutes help members maintain contact with fellow vendors & suppliers, while staying up-to-date on association activities, industry regulations, trends & any items of concern.
