About A & R Willis Catering Trailers

At A&R Willis, we don’t just build catering trailers, we’ve lived in them, traded from them, and relied on them. Before founding the company, we spent over 15 years running our own fleet of catering units across the UK. From small country shows to major festivals like Reading, Leeds, and Formula 1 events, we built a business from the ground up, and now, we help others do the same.

Since launching A&R Willis Catering Trailers more than 20 years ago, we’ve become one of the UK’s most trusted names in custom catering trailers and mobile conversion builds. Every unit is built in-house by our skilled team, tailored to each customer’s needs, and backed by our industry insight from years behind the counter—not just the tools.

Why Work With Us?

  • We understand the trade. We’ve operated catering units ourselves, so we know exactly what works in a real-world environment.
  • We build everything to spec. No two traders are the same. Every van, trailer, or container is custom-built around your menu, your team, and your goals.
  • We keep it personal. From first call to handover, you’ll deal directly with us. No sales reps, no nonsense, just honest advice and a straight-talking process.
  • We’re built on word of mouth. The majority of our business comes from returning customers and referrals. That’s the trust we aim to earn with every build.

We’re also VCA certified, and we operate a quality management system that conforms to ISO9001, ensuring your build meets all current safety and legislative standards.

Whether you’re just starting out or expanding a successful business, we’re here to help you design and build the perfect unit to suit your trade. Take a look at our product pages to see what we do, or get in touch to talk through your idea.
