Food Truck Face-Off transforms the excitement and creativity of America’s favorite street food trend into a high-energy, in-person team building competition. Participants collaborate to design, brand, market, and serve their own “food truck” concept, competing for points in creativity, teamwork, presentation, and, of course, taste.
Program Agenda
This engaging challenge blends culinary skills, branding creativity, and marketing flair. After high-energy ice breakers to “rank” the teams, participants choose their truck’s cuisine – options could include All-American, Mexican, Mediterranean, Asian, Vegetarian, or “Sweet Tooth.”
From there, it’s full steam ahead as teams:
- Develop a truck name and logo
- Build a custom truck façade with creative materials
- Design a menu and prepare a signature dish
- Produce and perform a live commercial to entice “customers”
Teams receive specific ingredients and suggested dish concepts, but no recipes, meaning creativity and collaboration are essential. Presentation counts, with authentic “food truck” serving materials enhancing the experience.
Once the trucks open for business, everyone samples the creations, roaming from “truck to truck” in an indoor culinary road trip. The event wraps with judging, medals for the winners, and bragging rights as the BEST Food Truck Champions.

What Clients Say About Food Truck Face-Off
Our team had a great time and enjoyed both events. The Food Truck was a huge success and that was everyone’s favorite activity. Thanks again for your assistance. Best Corporate Events is excellent to work with and we appreciate you being able to customize the activities for our group. Have a great day!
KarenReynolds AmericanYour Food Truck Face-Off lead facilitator had the room well organized and ready to start when we were. Even with 600 people, the judging was completed in time for our evening event and the medals were a great hit. Your Chef was very professional and a pleasure to work with. It was the right time to do a food truck challenge in our case because Kroger recently purchased us. Please thank the entire team that worked to make this event a success. I appreciate the long hours and hard work.
Sharon84.51Working with Best Corporate Events was truly a great experience. From booking the date to executing the final result, I was satisfied with the entire planning process. It was easy to get a hold of someone when I had questions, and the scheduled phone conversations were helpful. All of the employees who participated at Edwards had such a great time. We met the goals of the team building activity, which was to develop communication with other employees you don’t normally work or interact with. Edwards plans to do another team building activity next year, and we plan to go with Best Corporate Events. I can’t wait to continue this relationship and add more character to our company. Thanks to you for coordinating. Such an awesome job well done!
