Complete operational playbook for launching and scaling a food truck business. Covers menu engineering, pricing, permits, commissary kitchens, route planning, event booking, and growth from 1 truck to a fleet.
Food Cost Targets by Concept

Menu Size Rule
Keep it to 8-12 items MAX. Every item you add slows service, increases waste, and complicates prep. The best trucks run 6 items and crush it.
Pricing Formula
Menu Price = (Ingredient Cost / Target Food Cost %) ร 1.0 Example: $3.50 ingredients / 0.30 = $11.67 โ price at $12
High-Margin Adds
Drinks (80%+ margin): bottled water $2-3, canned soda $2-3, fresh lemonade $4-5 Sides: chips $3, mac & cheese $4-5, coleslaw $3 Desserts: cookies $3-4, churros $5-6 Upsell combos: meal + drink + side = $3-5 more per ticket

Trailer Alternative
Food trailers run $20,000-60,000 โ roughly half a truck. Trade-off: need a tow vehicle, harder to park in tight spots, but way cheaper entry point.

Break-Even Calculation
Monthly fixed costs: ~$4,000-6,000 (commissary $800, insurance $300, permits $200, truck payment $1,500, phone/POS $200, marketing $200, misc $500) Contribution margin: ~60% (after food cost + payment processing) Break-even monthly revenue: $4,500 / 0.60 = $7,500-10,000 Break-even daily (20 days): $375-500/day Most trucks need $500/day minimum to survive. $1,000/day is comfortable. $2,000/day is thriving.
What You Need From a Commissary
Licensed commercial kitchen for prep Dry and cold storage Grease trap access Overnight truck parking Waste disposal Health department approved
Cost Range
Shared commissary: $500-1,500/month Dedicated space: $1,500-3,000/month Ghost kitchen rental: $2,000-5,000/month (overkill for most trucks)
Stage 1: Single Truck ($0-300K/year)
Owner-operated, 1-2 employees Focus: nail the menu, build following, consistent locations Reinvest everything
Stage 2: Optimized Single ($300-500K/year)
2-3 employees, owner steps back from daily cooking Add catering revenue stream Build SOPs so others can run the truck without you
Stage 3: Second Truck ($500K-1M/year)
Clone the model โ same menu, same SOPs Different territory / different schedule Hire a truck manager, not just cooks Shared commissary, shared purchasing = better margins
Stage 4: Fleet (3+ trucks, $1M+/year)
Central commissary for all trucks Bulk purchasing (food cost drops 3-5%) Brand licensing or franchise model Consider brick-and-mortar as anchor location
Key Metrics to Track
Revenue per service hour โ target $150-300/hr Tickets per hour โ target 30-60 during rush Average ticket โ track weekly, push combos to raise it Food cost % โ weigh everything, price monthly Waste % โ track and reduce, target <3% of food purchased Social followers โ your free marketing channel Repeat customer rate โ loyalty cards, apps
Free / Low-Cost
Instagram + TikTok (post your location DAILY) Google Business Profile (show up in "food trucks near me") Yelp listing (free, people search it) Text/email list โ collect at every stop, send weekly schedule Partner with breweries, offices, event planners
Paid (When Profitable)
Instagram/Facebook ads ($5-10/day, geo-targeted) Food truck finder apps (Roaming Hunger, Street Food Finder) Sponsor local events for visibility
The #1 Marketing Rule
Post your location and hours EVERY SINGLE DAY on social media. The question "where are you today?" should never go unanswered.
Common Mistakes
Menu too big โ more items = more waste, slower service, confused customers Ignoring weather โ rain drops revenue 40-60%. Have backup indoor spots. No commissary plan โ operating without one is illegal in most cities Underpricing โ you're not competing with McDonald's. Charge what you're worth. Skipping maintenance โ a broken truck = zero revenue. Budget 3-5% for maintenance. No social media presence โ if people can't find you, you don't exist Bad location research โ one bad spot can waste an entire day No catering โ highest-margin revenue stream, most trucks ignore it Built by AfrexAI โ AI-powered business operations context for agents and founders.
