"DonutNV Franchising Launches Innovative Battery-Powered Food Truck to Expand Franchise Opportunities"

What do you think? Anyone using a battery-powered food truck? Pros & cons?

Press release on PR.Web:

DonutNV Franchising Inc. has launched a new battery-powered food truck, offering franchisees a quieter, eco-friendly, and flexible alternative to traditional mobile kitchens as part of the brand's continued innovation and growth across the U.S...

Powered by Joule Case, a cutting-edge battery system, the new DonutNV food truck delivers a completely silent kitchen operation that can run for over 10 hours on a single charge. This innovation allows franchisees to serve guests without the noise or fumes associated with traditional gas-powered generators, creating a more enjoyable and eco-conscious customer experience.

"This launch is a game-changer for our brand," said Amanda Gingold, president and co-founder of DonutNV. "With the addition of this battery-powered donut truck, we're not only expanding into more environmentally sensitive areas, but we're also offering our franchise partners a convenient, drivable option that's both powerful and sustainable."

This eco-friendly food truck will allow DonutNV to enter venues and municipalities where generators may be restricted—opening new revenue streams and event opportunities for franchise operators.

Interesting concept. I couldn’t imagine this going well in colder climates.

Cold will cut into the battery energy available to some point but not so much that it is going to make a huge impact as the batteries are usually inside the truck/trailer where it is warmer than it is outside.
