[MainstreetManagers] Food Trucks

[Heather Sumner]

Good morning,
I have always charged the food trucks for attending events, because like Jessica said they are selling a product & we are advertising for them. I only charge $50 & $20 of that goes toward their permit with the City. I learned right off the bat to not rely on them to get their permits, because most of them won't & then we get in trouble by the City for my vendors not having their permits. Also, they are more likely to show up to your event if they have paid to be there. 
If it is a very large event, like thousands of people, I have charged up to $150. If it is a first time event, I agree with Jessica about not charging them other than the permit fee if you are handling that for them...just until you establish an attendance history for the event. 
I hope this helps. Have a great day!

 Greetings! Do you bring in food trucks for any of your events? Do you charge the truck to be at your event? If so, how - a flat fee or a percentage of their sales for the day? Thank you for any assistance!
