Hi guys
First post on this forum - hope Ive put it in the right spot!
I am looking to invest in a mobile coffee trailer. Thought about the van idea, but since I already have a vehicle capable of towing a trailer, I thought I would go with the cheaper option. My thinking is that if it doesnt go well, I can flog the trailer a bit easier than a fully kitted-out van.
My main targets (customers
) will be construction sites, industrial areas, and events. I want something small enough to be agile, but large enough to handle medium-sized events (I live in an outlying suburb and will be catering to things like horse riding shows, fetes, and of course the footy and cricket matches).
Ive exhausted my Google searching to find manufacturers for trailers, and looks like Coffee Bella comes up trumps - in fact, it seems to be the ONLY manufacturer (please tell me if Im wrong - particularly if anyone knows of a manufacturer in WA!). Im not particularly handy, so outfitting my own trailer isnt an option.
Ive attached the specs below for the "small walk-in trailer" and would love your comments on the gear and price - is it reasonable, and would it be enough for my needs? Especially interested in comments about the espresso machine - any good?
Price is $33K GST inclusive.
Another point is that I need it to have room to make juices or smoothies or iced coffees - it gets pretty hot here and summer wont be just for coffee - does this look like it has enough room for a machine?
Thanks everyone - dont be afraid to be honest!
*note* - Ive tried attaching the PDF original document with pics etc, but it is apparently too large (1.5 MB). I can send this through to anyone who wants to see it - I can only attach the trailer layout.
