Naturals2Go is a business program that offers healthy snacks, quick meals and drinks that utilize the latest technology in automated retail (vending), with services and support unmatched in the industry. The company’s mission is to help entrepreneurs achieve their dream of owning and operating their own business while helping the world eat healthier one “vend” at a time! The program includes support teams that offer complete assistance with machine location, site closing, installation, and ongoing training and mentoring for the lifetime of the program. As a result, Naturals2Go has over 700 franchises currently operating.

The Naturals2Go business is completely scalable. It has multiple packages under $100,000 where an owner-operator can test the waters while knowing that there is unlimited growth potential. Many owner-operators have started with an initial investment they feel comfortable with, so they do not feel overextended. Then, by leveraging the revenues made after starting up, they can reinvest and continue to expand and grow by securing additional locations and machines when they are ready. The opportunities are limitless because there are no geographically restricted territories.

Obtaining the funds to cover the investment is also quite manageable. Naturals2Go is the most funded vending business opportunity with the Small Business Administration (SBA), and a number of additional funding programs are available. Even during COVID-19 shutdowns, many operators realized they could easily cover their loan payments and decided to double down and invest in more machines to grow and scale.

Naturals2Go is also the most awarded and recognized vending business opportunity among its competitors. The company has been voted Business Opportunity of the Year for nine years running by the Franchise Brokers Association. In addition, the brand has placed in the Top 100 Game Changers for Franchise Dictionary Magazine three years in a row and was awarded FranServe’s FRAN-TASTIC 500 for 2020 and 2021.

The Naturals2Go investment is so affordable because of the low cost of overhead. The business does not require employees, which means the staffing costs are zero. But how do you run a vending business with no employees? Naturals2Go has a full team that helps owner-operators place their machines, and the machines in the MVP Program are provided with a telemetry system, giving owners access to sales and inventory at any time at the touch of a button. That means, on average, owner-operators will spend one hour per week per machine servicing and running their business. But wait, there’s more! In addition, no costly retail space is required, and there are no franchise fees or royalties.
