If you’re wondering what it takes to start a food truck—and how you can make it successful—you’ve come to the right place. In this 2-part interview with Kyle Gourlie, owner of the Vet Chef, we talk about how much his food truck cost, how he’s built a successful food truck business, and his plans for the future.

After its founding in 2016, the Vet Chef quickly became one of the most popular food trucks in western Washington. It was voted Best Food Truck in Western Washington in 2017 and has doubled its sales in each subsequent year, with recent sales nearing the half-million dollar mark.

The Vet Chef isn’t just about profit. A veteran of the United States Marine Corps, Chef Gourlie also uses his business to support fellow vets. Being veteran-owned is a huge part of the Vet Chef’s identity and it’s not just a marketing gimmick. They offer jobs and mentorship to veterans, providing a community outside the military.

If any of Chef Gourlie’s answers resonate with you, we’d love to hear about it in the comments! And make sure you subscribe to our channel if you like this video and want to see more like it.
