Entering the food truck industry is not cheap.

Sure, many people opt to buy a mobile kitchen over opening up a sit-down restaurant for the simple fact that it is cheaper in the short-term and long-term, but that still doesn’t mean it is cheap to buy a food truck. Not to mention, there are still plenty of risks. After all, you are having to use a ton of money to buy the food truck, and everything else that is needed to run a mobile catering business.
