How it works
On the day, we position the truck or trailer and get the serving area ready. We are ready to serve at the agreed time, so everything runs to your schedule. Christmas markets in Hampden Park trade in the dark from about 3:55pm, so a lit pitch helps visitors find the truck. By contrast, a midsummer fair stays light until about 9:15pm.
- First, we check the dates.
- We agree the menu and the pitch.
- Paperwork goes over in good time.
- We’re ready to serve as visitors arrive.
- We trade, then pack down.
