Mobile Catering Business - Is it Too Soon To Start?

Hi Dave and thanks for all the info on your site, glad I found it.

I have bought a catering trailer and will be towing it back in the morning, have all the insurances in place and just became a member of NCASS which I would recommend to anyone starting out in this field.

I have a storage location and possibly a site on industrial estate. The problem is there are already two trailers operating there even though I won't be trading till mid April. So I’m just trying to get everything in place before I start. Am I doing this the right way round or should I have waited till nearer the time before buying a van.

I also phoned the local authority for planning permission, but too many obstacles are put in the way so have decided to start this way to gain experience and then look towards small events.

Thanks again for a great site

Mike
