What draws people to rallies and different food truck events? It’s the food of course! Most importantly, it’s the variety. As the food truck industry continues to grow, there is a need to expand into different culinary genres in order to offer an even more diverse and original variety of dishes!

We are constantly researching and monitoring what cuisine options are working and what is not. We wanted to share our findings to help your truck become a contributing partner in the growth of the food truck scene here in Tampa!

Here are the top 10 Food Trucks that the Tampa Bay Area needs to see more of:

• Middle Eastern
• Wings
• Indian
• Chinese
• Thai
• Mexican
• Seafood
• Churros
• Empanadas
• Poke Bowl

Here are the top 3 that are already saturated in the market:

• BBQ
• Shaved/Italian ice
• Cheesesteaks

You can go anywhere to get average food, and that’s why we suggest branching out of your comfort zone and trying something new. Tampa is exploding with diversity and flavor, and that’s what is performing best right now! The trucks we work with are a collection of different local eateries that reflect their favorite family recipes as well as new, fun trends that are happening in the foodie world.

If you ever need help or consulting starting your brand, you can check out our seminar on how to start a food truck or even engage us to develop your branding down to truck name and menu items. Our Chief Eating Officer, Michael Blasco has been in the food truck scene since 2011. For a full list of our services, click here.

You’ve seen it on TV and quite possibly you’ve eaten from one and thought, I could own and operate a food truck! The idea has been bouncing around in your head for weeks if not months and sure, it can be a bit frightening because there is so much to know about building and running a food truck business.  What if there was something available to guide you from point a to z on building and marketing your food truck business? What if you had someone, who is an expert with knowledge in the industry of food trucks that can answer all of your questions and tell you what your best options are for success?

Simply put, there is no one person; you have a team of people from Tampa Bay Food Truck Rally to help you. Our business is solely focused on food trucks and we’ve taken our knowledge from the field and have packed it into a four hour seminar of what works best. From helping you refine your business' concept to serving your first meal and everything in between.  We have helped several food truck operators start successful careers in the food truck industry. So please join us for our up coming seminar on July 12, 2015. We look forward to seeing you in person or online!
