Overview
The 2.8m mobile food trailer sits in the sweet spot of the range: half a metre more working length than our smallest unit, without the towing weight and set-up space of a full catering trailer. Vendors who are moving from a gazebo-and-table setup to a real shop on wheels usually land here, because the extra 400 mm is exactly what turns a one-person kitchen into a comfortable two-hand workspace with a clear prep side and a clear service side.
The layout centres on a wide side serving window with a stainless steel counter and fold-out serving shelf, so customers order from a fixed point instead of crowding the door. Behind the counter, the trailer carries a stainless work run along the full length of one wall, an equipment bay for a fridge or chest freezer, and a rear access door that lets you load stock without climbing over the service area.
