Nick Parisi, owner of the Athenas Food Truck and now Food Trucks NW, can help with any custom work needed, consult with you on the Labor & Industries plan approval process that would include floor layout and design plans, drawings, equipment layout, the inspection process and more. This will greatly increase your processing and approval time as this is the main item that slows new vendors down and can delay your opening timeline. Contact Nick via email at: ftnw101@gmail.com or by phone at:206-225-3058
Nick Parisi/Food Trucks NW installed a LPG detector in my food truck after doing all the research on what exactly was required by the new fire code. He does great work & I highly recommend his services! I will definitely be using him for other service needs. - Mona Stone, Alaska Weathervane Scallop Truck, www.alaskascallop.net
Nick Parisi came to our rescue. You should know that Nick took the initiative to reach out to me, he spoke to John around 9pm at night, and his advice was right. I've been impressed with the service he's performed on my truck - he's actually replacing our front bumper next week - but now I'm just impressed with him as an overall pro. You can feel good recommending him! - Jay Cascio, DelFino’s Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza
Matt Layson of CalRose Insurance is located in Everett, Washington. “With more than 30 years as an independent insurance agency, it's likely we've seen situations very similar to yours before. So no matter where you're at, you can talk to our agents about how to protect what's most important to you.”
“Getting your food truck business insured isn’t as simple as you thought right? Insurance companies make it complicated and often won’t offer a quote only because they don’t understand the business. We’ve found Food Truck Business Owners often come to us feeling like there isn’t much anyone can do to help, you’re either with company A or company B. We think you deserve better than that. We have access to a new program that recently came to Washington, which has saved some of our clients thousands of dollars while improving coverage at the same time. As a family owned, independent insurance agency, we are different from the name brands you may be familiar with. Not only do we have access to dozens of insurance companies, if we learn of a better program for our food truck clients, we can and will build new relationships so our people can get access to something better.”
