    Yeah i think that should still be around $500. Like $150 for a cart and $250-400 for the health dept cert for food handling/ perishable/ no raw meat.

    I had to look up this stuff when i was debating whether to open up a Texas style BBQ stand at the Venice Farmers Market.

    Im not necessarily a great cook, but my smoked brisket sandwich with onion and pickle on a roll...is legit as fuuuuk. Its so easy to do, and yet theres ZERO legit BBQ in my area. Its all niggerfied chewy ribs that taste like theyve been boiled and then dunked in spicy ketchup. NOT BBQ.

    He would need a decent investment because it was supposed to be a food truck and those are thousands of dollars

    I just looked it up and the cart alone is $500. He then needs a license from the Austin Public Health department, as well as a Texas tax ID number which will run another $500+, then he needs at the very least a couple chest freezers to store meat, plus commercial fridges for condiments and toppings, and most likely would want an account with a local bakery so he can always have fresh buns. He would also have to register his route with the Public Health department and stick to that route, which means he better do some real good market research or risk picking a bad route.

    There's a lot more to it than buy a cart and start selling hot dogs. It's not a bad idea, Bill Krozby just lacks the ambition and resources to really do it because it's actually a fuck load more work than it looks. He's looking at a good $3000 startup, plus he's going to probably want at least $3000 in the bank because that shit isn't going to be instant profit. It's going to take at least a year to even make the initial investment back.

    It would be worth it if you had the capital. I'm wondering how much the employees get paid though if they make $100,000 a year in gross profit. You probably only need like 3 people but if each of those are full time and make $20,000 a year that can add up.

    "According to the responses to our survey, over 85% of full-time food trucks generate over $100,000 in annual gross revenue. Over half of the vendors that responded sold $150,000 or more from their mobile food units last year. According to this report from USAToday.com, the average annual household income for families in the United States was $64,819 in 2014. When you compare the anticipated income for a food truck owner versus the “average” American, the gross income numbers look pretty good."

    He's not hiring 3 people only making $100,000/year gross.

    That's $60,000 in wages, overhead, workman compensation insurance, unemployment, et cetera, and if we're talking vans that's insurance, registration, and DOT certification since that equipment is going to push you over the 8,000 pound GVWR

    Oh, and if he's banking on rush hours he's going to probably want two people per truck so there's one person making the food and one person taking orders otherwise he'll be lucky to make $50/hr per truck over a 6 hour period since there's set-up and clean-up daily unless he's going to pay overtime to take care of prep and such.

    He would basically have to be a one man operation.
