Catering Vans

Catering vans are a great way for those looking to get into the catering business to begin. It allows for great mobility, while still being able to set up shop with decent facilities for an extended period of time. Those considering entering the industry often choose to begin on their journey with one of these vans as it allows them a route to market for their product but without the very high price tag associated with setting up a permanent fixture such as a restaurant or café.

The cost to buy a catering van is still significant despite being lower than opening a restaurant. Other expenses including employing another member of staff, insurance, equipment and petrol over the course of the year can add up to a significant total creating a barrier for entry for many.

Catering vans can come in many forms such as burger vans, kebab vans, desert vans, as well as a host of contemporary, healthy food vans. Catering vans are a regular sight at events such as sports events, weddings, street markets, parties and in particular, festivals. Music events such as large festivals see lots of catering vans setting up for the event, with some staying for the entire duration, and some only working on the busier days with the headline acts.

Not all catering vans are created equal either. While purchasing a second-hand van at the lower end of the market can cost in the region of £10,000, a new fully equipped van can cost in the mid-tens of thousands.
