Are food trucks/stands profitable ? I’m a good cook and love to BBQ i wonder what startup costs and profits would look like. Anyone have experience running your own food stand?
>>62328814My fear would be teens trying to knock it over or run off without paying
>>62328822Yeah. I could see that being location specific problem. I was thinking dispensaries have taco trucks in my town and other states I’ve been to and stoners are slow. Community college was another location option and i could see that being more likely to experience grab and dashes. I’ll just need everyone pay before i hand them the food and maybe get a truck they can’t easily flip
>>62328814Dont do it. Stupid high startup costs for something like BBQ. Youd be working 60hrs a week to make 80k/yr after spending 50k on startup.
>>62328915>over 1/3 profit in first yearThat’s really good. What business do you suggest that can beat that?

>>62328814>getting permits and being in code depending on the county you're in can be a bitch>big events like cons often want a cut of your sales on top of you usually having to compete with other trucks>getting your name out can be difficult so you'll have to contact all kinds of customers and get leads for smaller events that risk not being profitable>if you have staff then be ready to deal with some absolute retards because "lol service industry">food trucks are a pain in the ass to drive and maintainA BBQ truck would be popular at any event but a safer bet might be towing a smoker on a trailer if you happen to have a vehicle that can haul it around.
>>62328814White people are forced to follow every food regulation out the ass while blacks and browns can sell sloppa out of their car. Also bbq is a diamond dozen food, you'll find it hard to stand out and compete. Food trucks are mostly a meme unless you live in some hyper specific place with few restaurants but high demand peaks ( tourists flooding your area for some reason).>ten year food wagie and I'd never open a restaurant or food truck
