Company Description

My name is Jasmin Smith and I am a single mother of twins who resides in Anchorage Alaska in what was named by CNN as the most diverse neighborhood in America (Mountain View). I started Baby Vend when my son used his last diaper while out Christmas shopping. I found myself stuck in the mall with a cart full of presents that needed to be paid for. I realized my choice was to leave immediately or figure out a solution. At that moment I realized how frustrating this scenario could be for other families and lactating mothers. I decided I wanted to help and create a company that centers around ensuring no family is left somewhere without access to supplies. I gathered up my friends and asked them if they were down to join me on this new journey and they said yes! Together we decided to ensure no family was left without the supplies they needed, no matter the location. After researching the market and seeing what was available and where we could fit in, we found a niche and launched! We promised ourselves to grow this company to the highest level for our kids and other families in need and create custom vending and product solutions that reach wherever traveling families find themselves.
