5 Profitable Reasons You Should Start Your Own Mobile Bar Today!

There are over 70,000 bars in the U.S. alone. There’s little doubt that the bar industry is a booming one, so breaking into it with a mobile bar truck is a great idea for anyone looking to run their own business. But what exactly are the benefits of running a bar on wheels?

Here are 5 profitable reasons you should start your own mobile bar today.

High Demand

The bar industry is worth about $23 billion and that number is only expected to grow. There’s little doubt that we live in a thriving drinking culture so breaking into the bar industry with a mobile bar truck is a solid investment for those willing to put the work in.

As for demand: us humans can never pass up the opportunity for a good party. Weddings, birthdays, and other celebrations remain a staple in the U.S. and beyond. And where there’s a celebration, you can expect the need for a well-stocked bar.

Varied Work

Unlike traditional brick-and-mortar bars, a mobile bar thrives on versatility. That means the events you’ll be working can range anywhere from a lavish wedding, to a food-truck market, to a corporate event.

This versatility lends your business the ability to fluctuate with industry ebbs and flows. Weddings might be your bread and butter but during the off-season, you can supplement your roster with market appearances or holiday celebrations, and vice versa.

Be Your Own Boss

Running a business can be one of the most rewarding things you’ve ever done. And the great thing about helming a mobile bar is just how much control you have over the business as a whole.

No more answering to bosses out of touch with the day to day minutia of the job. You’re your own boss, able to work hands-on in a vocation you’re passionate about.

Minimal Overhead

A brick-and-mortar bar comes with a slew of expensive overhead costs. Rent, utilities, licensing – it can all add up to make the running of the business a lesson in stress.

A mobile bar, on the other hand, is comparatively cheap to set up and maintain. Once bought, your vehicle is yours outright with only maintenance checks and costs associated. Once you’ve factored in liquor licensing, advertising, and stock, everything else is money in your own pocket.

High Earning Potential

With average revenue per employee sitting at a comfortable $75,000 per year, the bar industry is a lucrative one to break into. 

At the end of the day, your earnings will reflect how much work you put into the business. Sinking effort into marketing, promotion, and sales will put your business in a much better position to earn big bucks.

Start Your Own Mobile Bar

A mobile bar is one of the best ways to break into the thriving bar industry. Setting up a bar on wheels requires minimal overhead with the opportunity for high earnings and varied work. It’s also an excellent way to be your own boss.
