Wow. Can u put me on.. how can I hit you up? I’ll pay you for mentorship.

[@Paragon_Reason]

I NEED to do something like this... I will give myself a few more yrs to figure it out .. If I don't I'm not long for this world. I can stand corporate life or being hot all the time

[@TheBillyjoe345]

Hi I'm looking to start this, but having trouble finding the right equipment. I'm looking to do stations at events and parties, can I dm you for some questions I have?

[@thekaerichtexas]

I rather make Italian water ice more than smoothies. Seems like u have to have more fresh ingredients to make 1 smoothie, ingredients go bad quicker (banana, strawberries,, etc) italian water ice is 3 cheap ingredients that can easily freeze for 6 months. Zero waste. Just make what u need or freeze it. Smoothies get too complicated and is highly specific to each customer (plus all their allergies and preferences, nut free, dairy free, soy free, keto, sugar free , low carb) when u walk up to a snow cone tent or Italian ice tent you know what ur getting (unhealthy sugar) 😜

You have a point

After much research, the water ice seems like the way to go. I’m looking for distributors that ship to CA.

[@Josh-pz6kl]

I’m interested in the lemonade business. Where is the best place to find banners and tents with graphics?

[@NoteznationTv]

Forgot about the fact that in able for the mobile cart to be health certified. You need a operation base. Which you have to pay for as well. Which depending what business you start from this list. will be difficult. trust my I'm in the Italian ice and it's hard to find a place to store just the ice and a building for the healt department to accept. Way over $1000

[@MobileFoodBooth]

Hi thanks for the comments depending what state you are from it varies. Over 30 states don't have a commercial kitchen required. Now if you are in California or New York it will be more hard. Try to think outside the box and ask a food truck owner if you can use them give them say 100 dollars they might accept it. Also doing private catering events you don't need a licence to get started. We recommend check with your local health department. Thanks and good luck

[@NoteznationTv]

@@MobileFoodBooth well here in Georgia , I own a Italian icee cart and they will not even issue my car a health permit without a base of operation.

[@fatsdulange]

Have a list of those 30 states?

Great info!!! A little feedback: please lower the music or just leave it out.

[@MobileFoodBooth]

Yes definitely sorry about that. We have corrected it in the other videos. Unfortunately we can't change it here

Thank You! This was very informative 💯 You have a new Subbie!

[@guymussori6457]

50 lbs of potatoes is around $40 and the fry oil that used to be $25 is now about $45

[@MobileFoodBooth]

You are right the prices have skyrocketed after COVID. But there is still a very good margin. I would recommend making a great product and charging 1 dollar more people will really appreciate it the quility

[@CS-uc2oh]

You can buy a 5 gallon bucket of pure tallow for about $178 and it goes a LONG way, it's healthier for your customers and your fries will be amazing and your customers will be left wondering why... it's also out of this world for popping pop corn too.

[@guymussori6457]

Show me were I can get a hotdog cart for $500 here in orlando Florida the cheapest hotdog cart i seen was $2,500 and i checked in Ebay, craigslist,facebook and used hotdog cart on the internet

[@MobileFoodBooth]

Yes covid and inflation has increased the prices. Up in the north in the off season October November you can find hotdog carts for about 1000-1200. Now in the beginning of summer they are 1800-2000. Remember always buy at the end of the season or when people are done with the business.

[@CS-uc2oh]

You didn't check the auctions. Tampa and Orlando has tons of public auctions. They auction businesses and everything. I've gotten expensive kitchen stuff from a Quiznos that closed and they had an onsite auction. I got the stuff for pennies. I got soooooo much nonsense from those auctions I thought I was going to have to go to rehab. There is also the public surplus website too which is online auctions for every state, every city, every county and lots and lots of food stuff. Get in the game man.

Do you need a commissary to sell lemonade in nys.

Hi it all depends on your local city and county. The best way to figure out is to call your local health department they will tell you all the codes and requirements. Thanks

I need help. I’m so close to buying a pushcart but I can’t get a clear Google search on where I can legally sell. I can’t find anything about zoning. Richmond Va. I understand you can’t be on park sidewalks, schools ext But does that mean I can go anywhere else. Would I need a permit for everywhere I want to go? Would be prepackaged popsicles and ice cream bars Help please

I am trying to build an ice cream trailer but can’t get no one on the phone with agriculture in N.C. Trying to find the codes for my state just had bad luck. Any help on where I can find the codes? Thanks

[@MobileFoodBooth]

Hi yes sometimes it can be hard reaching the state agency. I would advise Call your local city health department. Or call the bigger city health closest to you. They have a phone number and should be able to help you. Also ask a local restaurant who the inspector is and if they have a contact phone or email. Most restaurants do since they are inspected a couple of times a year. Most of it is very standard with ice cream and will apply to most of the state. Let us know if you need any more help finding. Thanks

What is initial start up cost?

[@MobileFoodBooth]

It honestly depends but you can be very frugal and buy used, build it yourself. Recommend to go all out on banner and graphics send all money there it will pay for itself

Great advice on most, but PLEASE show me ANY hot dog cart ANYWHERE for that price you can't even find a 💩box for that $$$.

[@MobileFoodBooth]

The video was made before the inflation prices and COVID. But it's still possible to find deals especially at the end of the season. Looking to buying in the spring is very hard to find anything. It's best to look once people close October November time. Thanks
