I’m Tom — 67, “retired,” but far from done. After 40+ years running kitchens and food trucks I’m launching one more great chapter: a small, smart, high-impact mobile cart serving the best chili-cheese dogs in Fort Worth. Minimum investment, maximum return, and a whole lot of joy in feeding people good food fast.
$27,200
covers cart build, trailer, permits, insurance, opening inventory & working capital.
54 customers/day @ $12 each
≈ 1 dog every 11 min on a 10-hr shift.
180 dogs/day × 250 days
= $270k gross → $205k owner profit (75 % margin).
Every dollar past 54th customer drops straight to bottom line. Your pledge helps buy the generator, trailer, and first month of inventory—then we’re cash-flow positive.
