The company *Vedum Kök och Bad AB*,[2] a manufacturer of kitchen and bathroom appliances, is located in Vedum.

The originally [narrow gauge railway](/source/Narrow_gauge_railway) was rebuilt to [standard gauge](/source/Standard_gauge) in 1899-1900 and trains still call at Vedum. The station building played an important part in the [film](/source/Film) comedy "[Stinsen brinner](https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stinsen_brinner)" (The Station Master is on Fire) from 1991.[3]
