Food truck customers to industry innovators
We started as avid food truck patrons and quickly became advocates for change in an industry we love. Now, we're a team of professionals from FAANG and Fortune 500 companies, united by our passion for mobile cuisine and our desire to make a difference. Forwheel is our nights-and-weekends labor of love, bootstrapped and built with the goal of driving the food truck industry forward.
Founded company
Driven by our passion for food trucks and a vision for positive industry change, we launched Forwheel. Building out a team and reasearching product market fit. Our mission, to elevate the world's mobile food experience for vendors and eaters alike.
Released beta
After months of development and collaboration with food truck operators, we released our beta version. This focused on social media integration for sharing real-time truck locations, providing a simple yet effective tool for our early adopters.
Public launch
Hit the streets with expanded features! Introduced enhanced social media integration, custom branding options, and the ability to set custom or future locations. These additions were direct responses to valuable user feedback from our beta phase.
2.0 Launch
Get ready! This major update will introduce our AI-powered advisor and exclusive partnerships. We're gearing up to transform how food trucks operate and connect with their communities, making running a food truck business easier than ever.
Our impact
“It's super easy to use, so it doesn't take a lot of time. I chose it, bc of the quick and easy graphics to draw more attention to social media posts. I love that you can update the truck's location with a simple touch (and it stores the previous ones for simplicity the next time). No problem to reach developers if you have a question. I've had no issues connecting to my social medias. Would recommend!.”
“...I can say I use it everyday without skipping a beat, since it makes it easy to post the location and other important information such as hours of operations. Honestly it saves me time when it comes to notifying my followers on where I'm located for the day...Lastly the guys who created this app are awesome, they are really receptive to feedback and implement new ideas into the app.”
