Opening a food truck in Florida is a big undertaking**.**
It’s not as difficult as some states — it’s gotten a little better since we got started in 2011.
For example, there’s no longer a requirement for a commissary.
Many new food truck owners don’t realize this.
Someone might say: “I signed a 12-month agreement with a commissary that costs me $500 a month. You mean I didn’t need that?”
No, you didn’t.
What you do need is a legal place to:
- Obtain potable water
- Dispose of gray water
That doesn't have to be done at a commissary.
There are many examples like this, where if you don’t know who to ask — or you ask someone with outdated information — you can end up spending oodles of money and time on things that weren’t necessary. When you're ready we may be able to help you find the next truck or trailer that'll help you start the dream machine with our Food Trucks For Sale and here is a weekly food truck podcast with short tips and tricks that are best practices.
