“My friend and I used to work in the Swiggy Operations Team. We saw promising business and growth in the food truck. So we resigned and started our food truck of authentic South Indian Tiffins,” shares Rakesh, owner, of 5 States Food Truck. “I am a foodie and I love to taste different types of food items. Food trucks gave me a very different taste from restaurants that too at a very low cost,” says Riya, a software employer.
WTF is another place where you can try delicious food items. You can have both vegetarian and non-vegetarian cuisines available at the food truck. “I love to do business. So as I have skills in cooking I thought of keeping a food truck on a very less budget.
The business has been going fine,” says WTF owner Raveesh. “Food trucks are generally known for offering high-quality food at affordable prices. They have lower overhead costs compared to traditional brick-and-mortar restaurants, allowing them to provide delicious meals at a more accessible price point,” concludes Ajay.
