GR8 Food TRucks Directive



Our mission is to provide a platform in which small local businesses can thrive in Grand Rapids and throughout all western Michigan. We do this by helping create, organize, promote & provide logistics for some of the areas largest & best food truck focused events.
Staying local is what helps communities thrive. We believe food trucks are an excellent way to support local. Food trucks are small community businesses, that purchase goods locally, employ locally, and 90% have owners directly working on their truck. So your dollars are directly helping a small business succeed vs. Large restaurant chain with no local ties.
Over the last 9 years we have helped local businesses generate over $3 million in revenue. In 2026 our goal is to help them surpass $4 million. We have also helped raise over $20,000 for small local nonprofit organizations. Together we can make a difference locally.
We have become the number one place to go for food truck related events in our area. Our list of events we host is constantly shifting. So check back often to find out when we are hosting the next great food truck event!
