On a market day you're paid at the hatch, and that never needs an invoice. Weddings, festivals and office parties do. goud.work writes those quotes and invoices on your phone between services, and gives the van a free page with your menu, your photos and where to find you next.

What goes on a food truck invoice

Easy Invoice starts you with Private event hire, Meals counted per person, Minimum spend, Pitch fee and Travel. For a wedding, quote the meals for the guest count and set a minimum spend so a quiet evening still pays. Add travel to the venue. The customer gets a link, you see when they viewed it, and the quote turns into the invoice in one tap. Bank details are on every invoice, and reminders go if it runs late.

Questions food trucks ask

How do I quote for a wedding as a food truck?

Start with the guest count and price the Meals line per person. Add a Minimum spend if you need one, Travel for the distance, and anything extra like a second service. Send it as a quote. When the couple agree, a deposit invoice holds the date, and the rest can follow after the event.

Do I need a licence to sell street food?

You need to register as a food business with your local council at least 28 days before you start. Many councils also need a street trading licence or consent for selling on public streets. Markets and festivals often sort this for their pitches, so ask the organiser and the council.

Do I charge VAT on street food?

Hot food to take away is standard rated, so once you're VAT registered, VAT goes on most of what you sell from a van. You have to register when taxable turnover passes £90,000 in 12 months. Some cold food is zero rated. If you're close to the threshold, an accountant can help.
