Next Steps

  • Finalize branding (name, logo, color palette, signage)
  • Source trailer (used enclosed, suitable for drive-through conversion)
  • Identify first location (high-traffic lot, lease terms)
  • Equipment list + supplier quotes (see materials.csv)
  • Permits research (St. Joseph County mobile food vendor, health dept)
  • Menu v1 + pricing
  • Staffing plan (opening crew — Kiowa hires, does not work the window)
