Empty Food Truck Hire
An overview
Empty food truck hire (or dry hire) allows you to rent a fully equipped food truck to use as a promotional platform to showcase your own food and beverage products. Fully branded to match your identity, it’s ideal for brand activations, product sampling, or unique catering setups at shows and events.
-
Empty food truck hire, often referred to as “dry hire,” is when you rent a fully equipped mobile catering unit without any staff or pre-stocked ingredients. Essentially, you bring your own team, supplies, and menu ideas, and the truck provides the professional setup needed to cook and serve. This option is especially popular for brand activations, product sampling, and other promotional events where you want full creative control to showcase your own food and beverage products.
-
No, we don't offer dry hire to commercial food vendors looking to operate their own street food business or sell food to the public. Bistro Pod's dry hire service is available exclusively for branded promotional activities, such as product sampling, marketing campaigns, PR events, and experiential activations. If you're looking to use the truck as part of a profit-making commercial food operation, unfortunately, our service isn't suitable.
-
We hire to PR agencies, event companies, and food and drink brands who want to use the Bistro Pod as a promotional platform to showcase their own products at events, trade shows and other brand activations.
