Origins
In 2013 Vendanor was created as a spin-off from the industrial and entrepreneurial cluster in Stryn. The company was founded with two objectives: developing a propane vending machine for sale and swapping of gas cylinders become the market leader in the Nordic region.
After 1.5 years of development, the finished product was presented to the market. It wasn't long before the largest players in the gas industry noticed our great product. In 2016, Danish Kosan Gas came on board as one of our first major customers. Towards the end of 2017, Linde Gases followed. Several small and large gas players entered our customer portfolio along the way.
When the different year 2020 came along, we dare to claim that purchasing propane cylinders from vending machines has become the de facto standard in the markets we operate in.
Vendanor is an industry independent company, and by utilizing the experience gained from the propane vending machine, the path is set for continued portfolio expansion.
