Create An Exciting Food Truck Event For Employee Appreciation Day

How are you celebrating Employee Appreciation Day this year?

There are so many awesome ways to show employees how much you care, which is especially important during a difficult period. Although the dynamics of events are looking a bit different this year (again), Chicago Food Truck Hub is well-positioned to deliver delicious and creative options to safely recognize and celebrate employee appreciation days. Quick calendar note: Employee Appreciation Day officially falls on the first Friday of March, which is March 5 this year.  But it can be celebrated any day and any month, not just a single day or during the month of March. Many organizations do a monthly recognition, while others do a large appreciation event in the summer.

Now more than ever, it’s important to celebrate your team’s hard work. Whether celebrating virtually or safely in person, Chicago Food Truck Hub can guide you through a wide variety of options to keep things delicious and entertaining for your employees.

Is renting a food truck safe?

In an era of heightened awareness of health and hygiene, renting a food truck is a smart choice to have a great time while staying safe. Among other safety measures, Chicago Food Truck Hub’s teams wear masks and gloves to keep both staff and guests healthy and comfortable. In a typical setting, food truck events are managed outside in a fresh air environment so guests can safely come to the food truck’s window to place and pick-up individually wrapped orders. Event foot traffic can be designed to be one-directional and separated into groups or waves to keep everything socially distanced and spaced out. With these and other precautions, everyone’s health and safety is taken into consideration to ensure not only a safe event, but also one where guests and hosts are able to focus on the excitement of the experience.

Looking for a complete event solution? We’ve got you covered!

Though cookies may be involved, there is no cookie cutter format of what an employee appreciation event should include. Some organizations design a great event by featuring a sweet or savory food truck for employees to enjoy. Chicago Food Truck Hub can also provide full service bar packages, service staff, and event rentals ranging from tents to picnic tables and dunk tanks (if you’re brave enough) and more. For that extra flair to put the cherry on top of an awesome employee appreciation event, Chicago Food Truck Hub offers many other services, including decor, games, music, photo booths and photo magnets and other options that can be branded and distributed as a keepsake.

When it comes to your employee appreciation event, Chicago Food Truck Hub’s goal is to make your team feel appreciated, happy and full - literally and figuratively. There’s no better way to reward your employees than showing them how much you care. Whatever the size or style, Chicago Food Truck Hub can provide consultations and guidance when learning more about your vision, preferences and budget to ensure that your team feels that special recognition they deserve.
