Custom catering trailers and container conversions built in Hertfordshire, serving food businesses nationwide
We're proud to build bespoke mobile catering trailers and container conversions for food businesses throughout the United Kingdom. While our workshop is based in Hertfordshire, we work with clients across England, Scotland, and Wales, with trusted transport partners to arrange delivery nationwide.
Since 2009, we've supplied hand-built trailers and container conversions to businesses trading at markets, festivals, events, business parks, schools, and high streets across the UK. Every unit is individually crafted by our small team of skilled craftsmen - we're not a production line, we're a family-run workshop that treats each build as a personal project.
