How To Turn Your Dream Into A Reality with Starting A Food Truck
Who would have thought that the food truck craze was just getting started? The New York Times reported in 2015 that over 9,000 mobile eateries were operating across the country. There are only about 12,000 Starbucks stores nationwide and 20,500 McDonald's restaurants to put this into perspective.
So what can you do to get ahead of your competition and increase your customer base? I had the opportunity to interview Ariel, The Food Truck Scholar. Our YouTube interview discusses how to make your dream a reality. Not only will caterers and other food professionals gain more insight into how to benefit from starting a food truck, but it will also provide a better understanding of some of the challenges!
