CAN YOU MAKE WITH A

FOOD TRAILER?

From both industry statistics and the experiences of our satisfied clients, it's easy to see that a food trailer can be a successful business.

On average, food trailers sell between $15,000 & $40,000 a month.

A Profitable Business Model:

Breaking Down Costs

As an example, let's consider monthly sales of $25,000 and break down the associated costs:

Food Costs: Around 30% or $7,500

Employees Payroll: Allocate 18%, or $4,500

Rent, Fuel, Electricity: Approximately 8.4% or $1,200

Miscellaneous Costs: Allocate 18%, or $4,500

Commissary Fees: Allocate $1,000 (varies)

Insurance: 1.2% or $300

After these costs, your total comes to $16,000, leaving you with $9,000 in monthly profit before your weekly payments.

THAT'S A GREAT BUSINESS!
