The team behind Vendora

Built by people who think in systems and act on data.

Vendora was founded by two people with complementary disciplines — one who sees the economics of every opportunity, one who engineers the system to capture it. Together, they built something neither could alone.

Julian Perez

Economist CFA Candidate Age 25

Julian built Vendora on a fundamental economic observation: premium venues consistently undermonetise their physical space. The gap wasn't demand — it was the absence of a frictionless, managed system to capture it.

As a CFA candidate and trained economist, he structured Vendora around incentive alignment — a model where the company's upside is entirely tied to each venue's performance. No fees. No management burden. Just shared revenue.

His vision: Vendora should be perceived not as a vending operator, but as managed retail infrastructure — as essential and invisible as Wi-Fi.

Santiago Cabal

Industrial Engineer Finance Age 31

Santiago brings what every great business idea needs most: the discipline to turn it into a repeatable system. His background in industrial engineering means he approaches every operational challenge through the lens of process efficiency and structural design.

With a career grounded in finance and systems thinking, Santiago architects the infrastructure that makes Vendora's promise deliverable at scale — from installation logistics to partner reporting frameworks.

Where Julian identifies the opportunity, Santiago builds the machine that captures it reliably, repeatedly, and at any scale.
