Morphology

vender = vend (transparent) = vend + er

Agentive '-er' added to the verb 'vend' yields 'one who sells', a direct and regular derivation.

Etymology

Vender comes from the old Latin verb vendere, which means 'to sell', and you can see the same root in words like vendor and vending, as in 'vending machine'. So, a vender is simply a person who 'sells' goods.
