Food trucks have become a mainstream food service format with over 35,000 food trucks operating in the US. A fully equipped commercial food truck costs $75,000–$200,000 — the primary financing need. Most food truck operators are 1–5 years in business, generating $150,000–$500,000 in annual revenue, and systematically declined by banks due to perceived business instability. However, established food trucks with event contracts, corporate lunch routes, and fixed-location permits have consistent, forecastable revenue. The food truck sector is expanding into ghost kitchen partnerships, commissary operations, and catering, creating additional financing needs. Mobile food operators are among the most underserved small business borrowers.

Why food trucks & mobile food

Target food trucks with 12+ months of operation, consistent monthly revenue above $10,000, and verifiable event or route contracts. Operators with corporate lunch routes or fixed event contracts have the most predictable revenue for underwriting. Event catering contracts provide clear revenue documentation. Avoid first-year startups without documented sales history.

Reaching them

Reach food truck operators via Instagram and Facebook — most are active social media marketers. Text and DM outreach works well. Lead with: 'I help food truck operators finance their next truck or cover expenses between events.' Truck acquisition is the most motivating conversation.

What to look for

  • 35,000+ food trucks nationally — most never approached by a broker. Food trucks are one of the most underbrokered business categories. Low competition and high receptivity.
  • Truck is the primary collateral event. A fully equipped commercial food truck is a $75,000–$200,000 asset-backed financing event. Equipment lenders can use the truck as collateral.
  • Event and corporate contracts = predictable revenue. Food trucks with corporate lunch routes or festival season contracts have forecastable revenue that supports underwriting.

Closing tips

  • Truck financing is the primary deal — ask how many trucks they have and what's next
  • Corporate and event contract holders have the clearest revenue documentation
  • Instagram and social media outreach is highly effective for this demographic
  • Second truck financing for growing operators is a repeat deal opportunity
