FAQs

What is the power set up?

The short wheelbase H-vans have a 16 amp electrical supply for an external hook up, whereas the long wheelbase vans have a dual 32 amp supply and two exterior hook ups.

If you need a standalone electrical supply, we can provide lithium batteries as a greener and more compact power solution. Alternatively, we also have a variety of generator options available for hire on request.

Please note that the more power you require (i.e. for appliances with heated elements, such as ovens, griddles and kettles), the larger the generator you will need. For our largest generator options we also have support vehicles for hire, providing easy transport between venues.
How many people can serve in the van?

We’d suggest two to three people can comfortably serve in the short wheelbase vans and three to four people in the long wheelbase vans.

This is particularly important for food truck and catering activations where staff need more space to work alongside hot appliances.

You can have more promotional staff positioned outside the vehicle, drawing in passers-by to your delicious activity.

How long does it take to set up?

A Citroën H-Van food truck with full sampling facilities can be up and running within 30-40 minutes, as the hot cupboards and griddles will need time to get up to temperature.

For activations and campaigns requiring minimal power and facilities, set up often takes just minutes.

Before your activity launch date, we recommend reaching out to your venue operator to discuss the power set up arrangements.

If you need support with set up on the first day, or with running your full campaign, we can provide a dedicated campaign manager or site operator to assist you. Our clients often find that the support of an experienced site manager on day one really kicks off the campaign by ensuring that everything runs smoothly.
What overall space is required?

While we state the dimensions of our Citroën H-vans above, please bear in mind that they also have serving hatches that open outwards and will require extra space.

For outdoor activations, we can create and supply A-boards, signage, seating, flags, umbrellas and custom branded structures, to help you make the most out of your location.

Our online branding store has everything you need to add that finishing touch to your activity.
