Custom Marketplace for Food Trucks: Curbside Kitchen
A custom development services platform designed as a marketplace for on-demand food services. This innovative solution bridges the gap between food truck owners and property owners or managers seeking catering and food services. The platform not only assists food truck operators in reaching a broader audience but also streamlines the process of scheduling and managing their services. In addition, this marketplace development initiative amplifies marketing opportunities, enhancing visibility for both food truck owners and property managers in this niche market.

Customer
A private US entrepreneur.
Background
It is quite costly for businesses to open cafeterias in their offices. That is why they hire food trucks to solve this problem. So, the customer decided to create a platform for property owners to find and book food trucks. It was supposed to be beneficial for both food truck and property owners.
Solution
We developed a website with an admin panel for 4 entities: property owners, food truck owners, office workers, and administrators. Food truck owners have an additional source of income while property owners and office workers are exposed to a larger variety of food nearby.
