Why did you start Parkwood Vending?
Because building a portfolio of vending machines in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs can offer Danny, Anne, and their family more freedom and flexibility in their lives while building something from the ground up. Simple as that.
We’re putting our time and energy to make sure this thing works and to do that, we know we have to be incredibly communicative, reliable, trustworthy, and collaborative. We know how to do that, and let us prove it to you.
