Starting a coffee truck
Anyone with a coffee truck, how much estimated do you make monthly?
Do these coffee trailers pay off? is it worth it? I’m laid off and new to the business world and wanting to kick start something and came across this.
Thinking of starting a traveling tom truck type of business.. the investment alone is around $172K plus 15K franchise fee plus operating expenses like gas, insurance, materials, coffee etc plus 3k T royalty fee to be paid to franchise company every year.
You can only service the area you are assigned by the company and work weekends or evenings mostly for events, games, fests etc.
It’sa lot of upfront costs and not sure if this will pay off.. Any guidance would be helpful!
edit: thank you everyone for responding.. super helpful 🙏
