HOW MUCH

MONEY

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!
