Coffee truck owners must face The Dairy Dilemma: which types of dairy milk to offer, how to store them properly, and which kinds of alternative milks to stock ☕

It's a lot to decide, but these choices will impact more than you think when it comes to designing your coffee truck!

🐮 Dairy milk has to be stored properly to meet specific health department requirements in your area. This typically includes mechanical refrigeration, thermometers for routine monitoring, and a handwashing sink for sanitizing utensils.

🥛 Alternative milks are a great way to accommodate a wider range of customers and unopened containers are often shelf stable.

How big of a fridge will you need to store enough dairy milk to serve the Saturday morning rush? Where will the handwashing sink go? Do you have enough storage space for unopened alternative milks?

We’ll make sure you have answers to these questions BEFORE we start designing and building your custom coffee truck to avoid issues post-delivery. You deserve a trusted partner that will help you make the best choices for your mobile coffee business.

Wood for sheep, anyone?? 🐑🐑🐑

One of the most popular board games ever requires a mobile unit that is equally unique, so we got to work building a mobile activation that would speak to the ultimate inside joke in the Catan community: “Wood For Sheep.”

We built the Sheepy Step Van, a mobile boardgame unit Catan could take to gaming conventions throughout the country. The giant 3D sheep serves two main purposes: drawing a crowd and speaking to their most loyal audience.

We designed, sculpted, and installed the massive sheep face to the front grille (including horns!) and a matching tail on the rear, complete with a custom awning that rises up so the red Catan sun stands proudly above the vehicle.

What’s visually spectacular on the outside needs to be functional on the inside too.

The vehicle was designed to be highly functional with high-traffic faux-stone commercial flooring, integrated LED strip lighting and outlets for POS systems, and modular rolling wooden display carts that can be strapped down during transit and easily rolled out to convention halls upon arrival.

Oh, and yes- the horn bleats 🔊

It can be your little secret… 🤫 We love working on vintage originals, but replicas are a great way to get the desired look with a (typically) lower price tag and shorter lead time.

How many food trucks can say they’ve taken flight? And not once, but twice! ✈️✈️

💬 The Ask: Build premium concession and merchandising solutions that would stand out on the bustling concourse at Barclays Center

🚚 The Delivery: Two vintage Citroën HY vans that grab attention on a crowded concourse with custom illuminated marquee roof signage

Each unit has custom gullwing serving awnings and high-capacity power systems to run commercial refrigeration. We installed real-wood custom cabinetry in the apparel unit and custom stainless steel and aluminum cabinetry in the food and beverage unit- no unappealing stadium carts here!

This is one of our favorite ways to incorporate vintage vehicles into a space as a stationary service point because you can still enjoy the vintage charm of these classic vehicles while customizing it with modern upgrades to function the way you need it to.

The results are a slam dunk! 🏀

Thank you to Barclays Center for trusting us with this complex project 💙
