Choosing A Food Truck Builder

By Tara Daniels


Choosing to go into business for yourself, either alone or with a partner is a major decision. One of the most popular choices for going into business is to start a food service truck. When doing so it is essential that you work with a food truck builder that is open to working with you to get the best vehicle fabricated for your needs.

The first thing that you need to decide is what kind of truck do you need. This will be a direct relation to the type of food that you plan to serve. Many fabrication firms have a catalog of preset models that you can choose from or you can choose to go custom.

If one chooses to go with a custom build, it is imperative that they work closely with the fabrication team. Your involvement in the design process will help to ensure that you end up with a vehicle that will be the best fit for your needs. Its is essential that you work closely with the builder to get a vehicle that will be of good service to you for many years.

When working with the fabrication team, make sure that one of the considerations that you keep in mind is that of vehicle size. These trucks come in a wide range of sizes and choosing the one that is best for you is essential for providing the best service you can to your future customers. You need to keep in mind not only your immediate needs but also the needs that you will have down the line as your business grows.

Before you start working with the fabrication team, you need to make sure that you create a list of the equipment and storage needs that you have. You need to work this out in detail as unlike a traditional restaurant you cannot easily add to the truck if something comes up that you did not think about. You must take everything into consideration ahead of the build.

Most fabricators will also give you the opportunity to have a support vehicle built at the same time. This is a good idea as it will allow you to not only have another vehicle that can be used for running errands but give you an additional; marketing tool. This vehicle can also be a great tool for catering if you wish to expand to that service in the future.

A great idea, and an option that many fabricators offer is that of a supplies trailer. This is a great choice as it can be hitched behind the main vehicle and towed along. It provides a great place to store items such as pop up tables and chair, sun umbrellas, sidewalk menu boards and additional packaging. It is also a great way to increase your visual presence by adding to the color scheme and graphics package of your main vehicle.

Working very closely with the food truck builder and their fabrication team will not only mean that you will have your business off to a good start now, but will help to ensure a healthy bottom line down the road. When you have the perfect service vehicle for your needs you will be in a better position to provide your customers with top-notch service and great tasting food. Who knows, you may be finding yourself having to build a second truck to expand your business brand!
