In Europe, many entrepreneurs have entered the food-truck market, which presents few barriers to entry, with limited fixed costs and the possibility of changing location. Certain specialties lend themselves particularly well to this type of catering, such as Souvlaki in Greece or Churros in Spain. Some companies, such as Prestige Food Truck (USA), M&R Trailers & Trucks (USA) and the Food Truck Company (Netherlands), have also successfully launched into the manufacture of specialized vehicles.
In Spain, the food-truck market has also seen an upward trend, particularly in urban centers where spending on out-of-home catering is on the rise and street food is very popular. The market was strongly affected by the appearance of covid-19 in 2020, with sanitary closures and a complete halt to sales for part of the second quarter of 2020. However, the relaxations introduced in 2021 and 2022 have enabled the sector to recover with a degree of dynamism.
