In brief: software for food trucks

Every event has a cost before a single portion is sold.
Deposits and cancellation terms protect a date that cannot be resold.
Stock is capped by the vehicle, so forecasting is unavoidable.
Profit per event varies enormously and needs measuring individually.

Pitch fees are paid before trading. A festival charging for the spot, a market charging a percentage and a private booking that pays a flat fee are three different economics, and lumping them together hides which events actually pay.

A booked Saturday cannot be sold twice. Deposits and clear cancellation terms are the only protection against a date that disappears two weeks out, and a handshake booking is not a booking.

The vehicle sets the ceiling. There is a fixed amount of storage and prep space, so running out at two o'clock and throwing food away at six are the two failure modes, and both are forecasting problems.

Events differ wildly in profit. A busy festival with a large fee can earn less than a quiet corporate lunch, and only per-event figures — takings against pitch, staff, stock and fuel — reveal which invitations are worth accepting next year.

Frequently asked questions about software for food trucks

Why track costs per event? +

Because they differ completely. A pitch fee, a percentage of takings and a flat hire charge are three economies, and averaging them conceals which events are actually paying.

Are deposits necessary? +

A Saturday cannot be sold twice. Once a date is committed, a cancellation two weeks out is unrecoverable, so a deposit and written terms are what make it a booking rather than an intention.

How is stock decided? +

By forecast, within the vehicle's limits. Space is fixed, so selling out at two o'clock and binning food at six are the two ways to lose money, and both come from guessing.

Which events should be repeated? +

Only the ones the figures support. A busy festival with a high fee can return less than a quiet office booking, and that only becomes visible when takings are set against pitch, staff, stock and fuel one event at a time.
