They didn’t just start a food truck business; they pioneered an entirely new way to serve customers. What started as a single-van operation has blossomed into a thriving food truck business with franchises across Texas and Florida. The most impressive part? Their corporate van, run single-handedly by Martha, generated $246K in revenue last year with a net profit of $177K. Their franchise owners are seeing similar success, with even part-time operators pulling in $150K annually. In this episode, Charles reveals how he turned a mobile smoothie concept into a growing food truck empire, why maintaining consistency drives success, and how their streamlined business model allows franchise owners to generate income from day one. For anyone dreaming of owning a food truck or looking to transform their existing business into a scalable operation, this conversation is packed with practical wisdom from someone who's mastered the art of mobile food service.
