Hey everyone,
I am a student working on a small team of 4 people looking to start a food truck to operate near campus. Our college is in a fairly small town but one with a very active nightlife(due to the huge student population). There are no other mobile food vendors that I know of in town, so we figure we have a largely untapped market. Our plan is to go as barebones as possible with start up costs, and serve primarily to the main street which has all of the local bars-where the most people are. Right now our menu is mostly fried foods that will appeal to drunk college students looking for a bite to eat. We plan to serve items like chopped cheese, fries(seasoned and plain), grilled cheese, and fried chicken. All of this should be doable with just a deep fryer and a griddle(I hope!).
I was just wondering if anyone with experience in the area has some useful advice or pointers to help us as none of us have any real experience in the area. Thank you!
