QUESTION TO ASK YOURSELF!

Is a Food Truck Business Right for You?

Before your create a menu and design your truck, ask yourself these four questions.

How well do I know the business?

Before taking the food truck plunge, there’s a lot of research to be done, Fellows says. He spent hours online reading guides and articles about successful businesses. He also toured “food truck cities” to watch traffic flow and speak with owners.

Figure out how many other food trucks specialize in the kind of food you plan on offering. If there are already three sandwich trucks that frequent the business district, is there room for yours too? Try to soak up as much information as you can before making a decision.

Like any other business, you’ll need to create a business plan, find startup funds, and handle all of the administrative tasks that come with owning a business.

How will I find the right vehicle?

Both Fellows and Tona say that finding the right truck for your business is crucial. You’re not going to head out to your local dealership and buy a brand new 2014 food truck fresh off the showroom floor. Most food trucks are custom made. Tona’s truck, for example, was an old Entenmann’s delivery truck. It was gutted and fitted to meet her needs.

This process will take time and money, Fellows says. Plus, you want to find the right partner to build your truck because prices and workmanship can vary. Go in with a plan. To give you a few layout options, here are a few links:

• Food truck schematics with pictures
• Food truck floor plans
• Interior food truck video
  

Can I handle the schedule?

Your workday starts long before you pull into your lunchtime parking spot. You’ll need to buy food and prep it before you start putting everything together for your customers. While the weekday lunch crowd could be your main source of income, there are a lot of weekend events that could bring in some money too. Are you prepared to put in these hours?

Am I prepared to make money a few bucks at a time?

Fellows says his return on investment is based on nickels and dimes. In other words, if you’re selling a five dollar sandwich, your income will come in slowly. You’ll want to sit down and do the math. Figure out food costs, truck maintenance, and marketing expenses and see just how many items you need to sell to make the business profitable.

Goin' Mobile: Your Options
Even before you decide what foods to sell, you'll want to consider how you want to sell them.

Clearly, your decision on how to sell your foods will depend on:

1. Your startup money, budget and potential for returns
2. Your commitment to the business: part time, full time, etc.
3. Your creative ideas and what it will take to fulfill them
4. Your experience at running a business
5. The size of the business you want to start
6. Your ideal demographic

These are a few of the considerations you will consider as you proceed.

Today, a new generation of street-food lovers is lining up at food trucks and food carts like never before. Little do they know that neither food trucks nor food carts are new to the streets. 

According to Los Angeles-based industry-research firm IBISWorld, the street-food business -- including mobile food trucks and nonmechanized carts -- is a $1 billion industry that has seen an 8.4 percent growth rate from 2007 to 2012. It's very entrepreneurial: 78 percent of operators have four or fewer employees. The true number of these businesses is difficult to count, since the mobile food industry is comprised of food trucks, food carts and kiosks, which have appeared in malls as well as at train and bus stations, airports, stadiums, conference centers, resorts, and other locations in recent years.

Food-industry observers claim that the food-truck business is increasing largely in response to the slow-growing economy. People are seeking inexpensive breakfasts and lunches. Also, employees today are often pressed for time, with more work and shorter lunch hours. These factors make the mobile-food concept more appealing than ever.

From an entrepreneurial standpoint, kiosks, carts, trailers, and food trucks have a lower overhead than restaurants and can be moved if one location does not generate enough business. Rather than having to determine where to open a restaurant and worry about the old real-estate adage "location, location, location," the owner can actually drive to a new location, location, location if business is poor.

For customers, you add the convenience of having food favorites right outside a particular location -- or inside with a kiosk -- and meet several needs by serving mobile food. First, you offer food that is cost friendly because you need not pay wait staff or bussers. You also offer the convenience of quick service. In many cases you provide food choices that can save those on a busy schedule from the need to sit down. Typically customers can eat street foods while en route to their next destination. Finally, mobile food is often fun to eat and (if it's good) great to talk about.

MOBILE BUSINESS

In the last decade, mobile businesses have become increasingly popular, with food truck revenues reaching over an estimated $800 million in 2014. The reasons for this huge appetite are pretty obvious -- trucks are usually way less expensive than their brick-and-mortar counterparts. (The average difference is about $75,000 versus $250,000.)

Ketua Pengarah Fama, Datuk Ahmad Ishak berkata, penggunaan Caravan Tani memudahkan peniaga  membuka dan menutup perniagaan mereka setiap hari.

“Kalau sekarang peniaga terpaksa buka payung, meja dan macam-macam lagi sebelum berniaga, dengan Caravan Tani semua itu tidak perlu lagi, mereka cuma perlu buka caravan dan berniaga.

“Kaedah ini bagus kerana kita dapat menjimatkan tenaga, masa dan juga memastikan persekitaran pasar berada dalam keadaan bersih,” katanya ketika ditemui di Pameran Antarabangsa Pertanian, Hortikultur dan Agro pelancongan Malaysia (Maha) 2014  dan Hari  Peladang,

Penternak, dan Nelayan Kebangsaan (HPPNK) 2014 di Serdang.

“Oleh itu, kami di Fama menyasarkan 1,000 buah Caravan Tani di seluruh pasar tani menjelang 2020 memandangkan kami sedang menggalakkan peniaga lama bertukar kepada konsep ini,"katanya.
