Food trucks seem to be on the rise all over the country as people go down the path of being self-employed and working remotely. In such circumstances, the idea of owning a self-run mobile food business seems like a good one. A mobile food business can take the form of a food truck but like any other restaurant, it can have its own culinary identity and social value.
Food trucks are much easier to start than a restaurant and they can become a viable source of income for a family. Whether you are trying to make money to improve your finances or if you are fulfilling a lifelong dream of making burgers on the go; before you start your street food enterprise remember to check and follow these rules and regulations to make your endeavor safe and in compliance with all the legal requirements.

This one is so much easier said than done. After all, if you are too lenient, then your employees will take advantage of you; however, if you are too strict, then they won’t like you — it’s really that simple. Finding the perfect combination will lead to your employees not only respecting you … but it will also lead to them being able to have a good time at work.
This is one of the many different reasons why being a food truck owner is so tough, because being a great manager — and a leader at the same time — is a tall ask. You know, while being a great cook and business owner on top of that.
