Greenville area food trucks are gaining in popularity and evolving from mobile eateries into brick-and-mortar restaurants with a strong following.
That’s why the Fall for Greenville festival hosts Food Truck Row, and euphoria brings various mobile food vendors to town. Both events help mobile trucks gain larger followings and eventually become standalone restaurants.
“I can remember Mayor Knox White coming to the first day of our food truck opening in a bank building parking lot,” said Ruta Fox, media relations specialist for food truck Asada.
