Compared to most food products, the advantage of pizza is that it can be sold anywhere, in any circumstance and at any time.
It’s good at breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, as a snack, and as a meal after a night out. Everyone likes pizza, no matter what the age.
Not coincidentally, even those who do not primarily sell pizza opt for a pizza truck as a street sales solution.
In fact, pizza is, above all, the street food par excellence.
However, once you have figured out that you want to sell pizza on a food truck, you need to understand which is the most suitable model and which features to keep in mind when acquiring one.
DIMENSIONS
The vehicle’s dimensions are the first factor to take under consideration. Two main categories are available:
- The Piaggio Ape pizza vans;
- The pizza trucks.
More than anything, the dimensions clearly influence the quantity of the product you can transport; however, they also affect which places and settings you can access.
That’s why you need to have a well-defined project before buying a vehicle. You must know how and where it will be used, as well as who will work on it.
How many workers will be on board? And even before deciding that, is it necessary to work on board the vehicle or would it be more useful to work on the ground and use it as a workstation?
EQUIPMENT
The equipment depends a lot on the type of ingredients and products being sold, including the kind of pizza (round, by the slice, alla pala, al metro).
Do you need a gas or wood-fired oven? Would a dual system be better?
Are you just selling pizza or other products as well? Are you using fresh or frozen ingredients?
Will drinks also be sold?
GRAPHIC DESIGN AND FINISHING
The paint job and the quality of the finishing on the mobile pizzeria significantly influence costs. Therefore, the buyer must evaluate the importance of the project’s aesthetics and visuals.
The more important it is to brand and promote the company, the more it will be essential to see to layout and refine the outfitting.
Instead, advertising might be a secondary concern and irrelevant in other cases where production and sales must run quick and smoothly.
The pizza food truck must reflect these needs.
Other concerns regard materials, lighting, food storage, the food truck’s energy supply, and many other extras which support production and sales.
Each element can be customized and fit to the buyer’s desired size, with consequential effects on the cost of the pizza truck, but also on its final quality.
