Food Truck Economics
Food Truck Economics"
Startup Costs
The food truck market may be easier to break into than the restaurant business, but it is still a major endeavor. The cost of starting a high quality food truck ranges from approximately $50,000 to $150,000 or more, and the process takes several months.
The biggest cost is the truck itself. Bobby’s family bought their truck used for $37,000. Pelle, the caterer who sells Nordic dishes like meatballs, mashed potatoes, and lingonberries, paid $20,000 for his used truck and another $27,000 to outfit it. But trucks looking to tap into the foodie scenes of LA, New York, and San Francisco may need to make a big investment in a custom truck. To meet the challenge of cooking quality sushi, Thomas of We Sushi spent over $100,000 on a custom truck. But so did Me So Hungry, a truck that dishes out creative sliders.
Trucks can be rented to reduce capital costs, but Bobby dismissed the possibility as the rates are almost as high as buying a used truck. Given the healthy market for used trucks, buying one is less of a risk.
The other major start up expense is licensing and permits. Josh of StrEAT Food Park estimates the total cost at up to $10,000, a figure confirmed by several trucks. The various required licenses include a business license, food handler certification, health certification, and fire certification.
Many licenses are administered by the county or city, so a truck that wants to freely roam from the South Bay, north up to San Francisco, and east across the bridge to Oakland and Berkeley would need to clear the permitting and license requirements of at least 4 counties - an expense some but not all trucks undertake.
Today, food truck owners benefit from infrastructure that makes it easier and cheaper to get started and find customers.
Food truck owners cannot run the business out of their house. They are legally obligated to prep food in a certified kitchen and dump used “gray” water in a certified space. Commissaries, kitchens that rent out space to food entrepreneurs, have begun catering to food trucks, offering places to park and re-charge the trucks in addition to cooking facilities.
Organizations like Off The Grid and SOMA StrEAT Food Park offer trucks easy access to customers. Since the reputation and stability of the organizers draws a crowd, trucks can sell to many customers from day one. The pioneers of the food truck world, who established the norm of following trucks on Twitter and searching out their social media presence, also makes it easier for trucks to market themselves.
