What do you need to consider about food catering trailers?
Food menu. Before starting a mobile catering trailer business, you need to focus on your menu. What is your staple food? Pizza, burger, hot dog, fast food or what? In addition to the staple food, what other desserts, soups or side dishes do you want to sell? If you are a chef, these questions already have answers in your mind. So, now we can equip your catering trailer with the necessary oven, fryer, griddle, steamer, range hood, ice cream machine according to your menu, or reserve enough space for your catering trailer equipment.
Kitchen space. How many employees will your trailer have? One or two people? Three people or five people? We provide trailers of different sizes, from 2 meters long to 8 meters long. The trailer space ensures that no one hinders others while working. In addition, the storage space of the trailer must be sufficient. The storage cabinets, cupboards, and shelves can allow you to store enough ingredients or napkins, tableware, etc. Of course, cold storage space must also be considered, such as refrigerators, freezers or fresh-keeping cabinets.
Location and sales opportunities
Location and sales opportunities are closely related. Keep your trailer parked in a good location with high traffic, and you can get more sales opportunities. In addition, you also need to pay attention to your business hours, because customers will arrive at different times.
Location is important
The surrounding areas of the business district from Monday to Friday are high-traffic locations. You can park your trailer in the parking space near the roadside. On weekends, you can go to parks, food courts, beaches or baseball stadiums to sell your food. Nearby food is always more attractive than restaurants farther away. You can also follow the city calendar to participate in different activities, such as carnivals, sports events, festival celebrations, etc., where you will make huge profits.
Business hours
Do you serve during breakfast tim e? Park your trailer in advance to the selling position and prepare the ingredients for breakfast. This is a very good selling opportunity. Of course, lunch is a must. Due to the short time at noon, in order to reduce the time for customers to line up, it is very necessary to send the menu to customers in advance. You need to update your menu to your Facebook, Instagram and other social media before noon, and make the menu in front of the trailer more clear. It is a very good choice to activate the App ordering service. If you serve the crowd after work, then, add external lighting to your trailer, we have a variety of LED lights to choose from. You can also add tables and chairs, because customers after work are not in a hurry. Even, you can add entertainment equipment, such as stereo, Wi-Fi and TV.
