From a Vendor Like You
“I used to rely on people remembering me after the market. Now I text them every Friday before we open and I see familiar faces every week.”
— Sarah K., Farmers Market Vendor
The Problem
Instagram isn't enough.
- ✕Followers don't see every post
- ✕Stories disappear
- ✕Algorithms change
- ✕Customers forget where you're parked
- ✕You get 30 DMs asking "Where are you today?"
Text messages get opened.
More customers. More stops. Less guesswork.
Built for food trucks and mobile vendors. One tool that keeps regulars coming back to every stop.
✓ Fill your truck before you even park.
Two ways to capture customers
Display your QR code at the window, or put your keyword on a sign. Either way they're on your list in seconds — no app, no friction.
Bring customers to your next stop
Send a quick text with your weekly schedule. Your regulars show up because they heard from you — not by chance.
Fill your truck before you park
Schedule your stops and flip on auto-text. Subscribers get your schedule 24 hours ahead — no manual work needed.
Only text subscribers who are near you.
After customers join your list, VendorLoop asks for their zip code. It stores their location and — when you schedule an event — only texts the subscribers who are nearby.
Customers who aren't near your next stop won't hear from you this time — and they won't unsubscribe. Subscribers without a zip are always included so you never miss anyone.
- ✓Customers reply with their zip — no forms, no friction
- ✓Events auto-filter to nearby subscribers automatically
- ✓No zip code? Subscriber always gets the text
- ✓Toggle proximity on or off per event

From the vendors
They didn't just buy once. They came back.
Vendors using VendorLoop don't just make sales — they build a crowd that shows up for them week after week.
“I used to just hope people remembered me after the market. Now I text them every Friday and my booth is packed by 9am. Signed up over 200 people in my first 3 months.”

“Customers scan the QR code while they're waiting in line. By the time they reach the window they're already on my list. My regulars now come specifically because I texted them my location.”
Marcus T.
Tacos La Familia · Tampa, FL
“I was skeptical about paying for another tool. But one text before a market and I'm sold out of my bestsellers before noon. It pays for itself every single month.”
