Van dining car

The cute shape of the van gives people a relaxing feeling

The difficulty of setting up a stall has also been greatly reduced. Most of the stalls will have a working platform extended from the back and can be used for business!

⠀⠀

Three advantages of van dining cars:

  1. Fast stall setting
  2. Large advertising area on the exterior of the vehicle
  3. The interior decoration cost is relatively cheap

Although the space available for modification in a van dining car is limited, unlike ordinary dining cars, it does not have a display surface and work area.

But if the items are simple, it can still present a very stylish look!

And adding some signature visuals to embellish it is also a plus.


It's just that the dining car has a small space.

The items and utensils that need to be placed need to be planned very accurately!

For example, the location of a large ice bucket, the location of a generator or battery, etc.

Because of its large size, it should be given priority

This is the part that needs to be considered first in the discussion beforehand.

You won’t have to wait until the decoration is completed before finding out that there is no room for it.

All in all, boxcars are indeed a very friendly choice for food truck novices!

No need to consider the vehicle body and additional costs, the stall will not be too high-profile, and the transformation cost is low

You can start with simple items to see if you like the mobile food truck business model.

If the stock volume needs to be larger in the future, or if more items or equipment are needed

You can then change it into a food truck and continue on the road!


⬆ NAMI Hot Dog's first food truck was a second-hand van that was converted

After a year of operation, we found that the car was too old to travel far and the stock was limited so we couldn’t handle large-scale business.

So I decided to sell the van, convert it into a truck, and continue my journey.

⬆ The first van of Shishi Zaizai Duck Meat Rice Cake was also a second-hand van

After the business stabilized and we determined our business model, we found that we could maintain the van dining car model.

So I immediately placed an order for the latest town ace van and modified it into the Foodie 2.0!

So regarding the choice of dining car body,

We can't recommend which one is best.

All I can say is that what suits you is different for everyone, and you have to find what you like.
