Farrell Vending is a multigenerational company with strong ties to the community. We started in the food and beverage industry in the 1920’s with a local produce cart. Once prohibition ended, MM Farrell (Gramp) moved into the beer industry. In the mid 1930’s the company offered both beer and soda. Offering Pepsi-Cola along with our own local beverages under the Dominion Dry Corp name, specializing is non-cola’s. In the 1940’s Dominion Dry separated from the beer side of the family company completely and became L.E. Farrell Company, owned by Louis E. Farrell, MM’s son. L.E. Farrell Company grew over time to carry more and more Pepsi branded soft drinks and ceased production of Dominion Dry. L.E. Farrell Company was then passed down to Louis’ son, Skip in 1981. Fast forward a few years, and we find ourselves in October 1995. At this point Skip decided to take the company in a new direction with the purchase of Patrick’s Vending, a vending company that had been in business for over 50 years. Thus begun the company we are today, Farrell Vending Services. Farrell Vending quickly became one of the leaders in full-line vending. Growth came quickly, and we tripled in size by 1998, largely because of the acquisition of Middlebury Vending. We then became a Canteen Franchise in 2001, opening up the opportunity for us to sell nationally branded foods. We have continued to grow over the years, and 2005 we acquired All Season’s Vending. With all the growth that we experienced in our first 10 years, we found ourselves with the desire to offer a high quality, fresh, local food to our customers. We then started 2005 off with the construction and opening of a state-of-the-art culinary center. The food you find in our vending machines today, is made fresh daily, with local products right here in Burlington. In 2009, Skip decided to retire from the Pepsi business and sold that portion of L.E. Farrell Company. As a result, we constructed and moved our offices into our current location. Returning us, to the very building it all started in all those years ago as a Pepsi bottler. We continue to grow and the future is bright. Our customers include, major education institutions, shopping malls, office building, IBM, and too many more to mention.
