Food Trucks Editing and Proofreading Services

A food truck's business is decided by where it can park and on what terms, and those terms arrive as an application form and a site agreement written by a council, a landowner, a festival or a market operator. Operators are cooks, not contract readers. They sign, turn up, and discover that the pitch fee is a percentage of takings with a minimum, that power is not included, that they are one of three burger vans, or that the event has the right to move them to a corner nobody walks past.

We edit what mobile food operators and street food businesses produce — pitch and site applications, trading agreements and their key terms, event and festival booking correspondence, menu and service board copy, allergen and dietary information at a hatch, pricing and cashless payment signage, licensing and registration documentation, food safety and hygiene documentation, risk assessments for a pitch, insurance and certification documentation for organisers, private hire and event catering quotations, social media and location announcement copy, and supplier and wholesale correspondence. Our editors work on the documents that decide whether a pitch is worth taking.

The pitch agreement is where a season is made or lost, and operators sign them without reading because the alternative is not trading. We work through these so the operator understands what they are agreeing to before committing — whether the fee is fixed, a percentage, or a percentage with a minimum, and what happens on a wet Saturday; whether power, water and waste are included and at what rating, since arriving with a 32A requirement to a 16A supply ends the day; whether exclusivity is granted and how it is defined, because "one burger trader" and "no similar offer" are different promises; where the pitch actually is, with a plan rather than a description; what the cancellation position is if the event is called off, and who bears the loss; and what the operator must supply the organiser and by when. We also write the operator's own quotation for private hire so the same clarity runs in the other direction. Trading is a small-margin business and the agreement is where most of the margin is decided.

Everything you send is treated in confidence, including agreements, pricing and supplier terms. We are editors rather than legal, licensing or food safety advisers, and we offer no view on contract terms, licensing requirements, food hygiene or allergen obligations. What we can do is make the terms clear and the trading documents specific.
