Travelers seeking a change of scenery and safer working environment after months of pandemic travel restrictions can work relaxedly from a one- or two-bedroom pool-view suite with king or double queen beds, a dining area, full kitchen, cable television, or do their teleworking in their workspace or private balcony or terrace.

Using a smart phone or tablet, the FoodTrux app utilizes an intelligent user interface to personalize the user experience when searching for and directly engaging with food trucks based upon geographic location, culinary cuisine, and user favorites. 

Available on Apple’s App Store and Google’s Google Play, FoodTrux is an interactive food truck finder app that displays local food trucks on the app’s map, provides turn-by-turn directions, lists food trucks’ menus, prices, special promotions and highlights regional events. All of which are uploaded in real-time on the food truck vendor side of the app.
