Starting A Food Truck Business

Several factors have led to the success of the food truck industry…slow growing economy, shorter lunch hours, low overhead as compared to a brick and mortar location, and mobility. How can you start your own food truck business? First, consider these factors; menu, licenses, startup costs, locations and branding. Sounds simple, right?
