Vendor Prime

Vendor redirects here; for the occupation, please see vendor.

Vendor Prime, or simply Vendor, was the inhabited prime planet in the Vendor system. The planet was located in the Beta Quadrant and was the homeworld of the Vendorians, a non-humanoid species.

Prior to stardate 5143, Vendor was quarantined due to their shapeshifting abilities and lifestyle of deceit.

Carter Winston's trading vessel crash landed on Vendor in 2264. He eventually died there in 2265, under the care of a Vendorian who later assumed his identity. (TAS: "The Survivor")

Background information[]

This planet was only mentioned in dialogue.

This planet's quadrant of origin is inferred based on the position of its star system as seen in the star chart appearing in the Star Trek: Picard episode "Maps and Legends".

In the novelization of "The Survivor", the Vendorian homeworld was consistently referred to as "Vendoria" and it was said that Romulans frequently visited the planet, during a period of several years prior to 2269.

According to Star Trek: Star Charts (p. 66, "United Federation of Planets I") and Stellar Cartography: The Starfleet Reference Library ("Stellar Cartography", p. 32; "Federation Historical Highlights, 2161-2385"), the quarantine on Vendor was still in effect in 2378.
