Suddenly food trucks are all around us, and can be a simpler way of entering the food service game than signing a lease for a traditional shop. Flexibility and mobility are two of the positives, but there are also challenges with establishing a recognised brand, working out of a tiny space, and the need for constant promotion.

In this interview Ken Burgin talks with Harry Fleming, a chef and owner of The Bun Mobile – Brisbane’s original food truck and still a leader with its innovative menu and a huge following of hungry fans. We talked about establishment costs, regular social media posting, good photography, food safety, production kitchens, and the importance of a location calendar. Harry is very generous with the information he shares, and combines a successful business with regular holidays, which he also shares on social media! You can follow the Bun Mobile on Facebook and Instagram, and also check his Downey Park Food Truck collection.
