Do you have a passion for food and wondering how to start your own food truck business? That’s what Jen Gustin did when she started the food truck Boss Mama’s Kitchen. With profits growing steadily, she’s found success in the food truck business—and you can, too, if you follow her model.

After working in the corporate world her entire adult life, starting a food truck was Jen’s way to become her own boss without the huge financial investment of a brick and mortar restaurant.

Boss Mama’s Kitchen was named Food Truck of the Year by South Sound Magazine in 2018, just two years after opening. Local media attention and strong partnerships with local businesses are just a couple ways she’s gotten such a loyal following in her area.

In this interview, Jen shares her insider tips on how to start a food truck that grows its profits year after year. She’ll talk about food truck costs (both initial and ongoing), building a customer base, and how Boss Mama’s has stayed afloat through all the challenges of 2020.

One tip from Jen: success in the food truck business doesn’t happen overnight. Building Boss Mama’s Kitchen’s revenue took time and expertise, and it wasn’t always smooth sailing.
