Behind Every Successful Event: GVFT Production Expertise

When the crowds are cheering, the food trucks are serving, and your event is running smoothly, there’s often an experienced team working behind the scenes to make it all happen. For over two decades, Greater Vancouver Food Trucks (GVFT) has been that trusted partner for events of all sizes across the Lower Mainland.

More Than Just Food Trucks

While our name highlights our food truck expertise, our team brings over 20 years of comprehensive event production experience to the table. We’ve evolved into a full-service event production powerhouse that handles everything from initial concept development to post-event analysis.

“As an event producer, time is always limited and missing key operational details is easy,” notes Anwar Flores, Events Manager at Concord Pacific Dragon Boat Festival. “Jason and his team offer turn-key solutions, all they need is a footprint to work with and they will do their magic based on your event needs, from idea concept, staffing and performers to executing and most importantly post-event data reporting.”

A Track Record of Regional Success

Our portfolio includes successful partnerships with municipalities across the Lower Mainland. These ongoing relationships have been built on our ability to deliver consistent results while adapting to each community’s unique needs and character.

Professional Partnerships That Build Trust

Beyond municipal events, we’ve established strong working relationships with major industry players, providing event production support for organizations like Live Nation, Grosvenor and Concord Pacific.

These professional partnerships speak to our versatility and ability to scale our services for events of any size.

What We Bring to Your Event

Our comprehensive event production services include:

  • Vendor Management: With deep connections and network with over 150+ food vendors and artisans
  • Logistics Planning: Site mapping, power management, waste management solutions
  • Staffing Solutions: Experienced event staff who understand how to create a positive guest experience
  • Entertainment Coordination: From booking performers to managing stage operations
  • Marketing Support: Leveraging our established audience of food and festival enthusiasts
  • Data Collection & Analysis: Providing valuable post-event insights to improve future events

Our Process Makes Your Job Easier

We understand that event organizers are often juggling countless responsibilities. Our streamlined approach eliminates stress by providing turn-key solutions that allow you to focus on other aspects of your event.

“Working with Jason and the Greater Vancouver Food Truck Festival is easy and rewarding!” shares Flores. “The only thing I regret is not having worked with them years ago!”

Why Choose Greater Vancouver Food Trucks as Your Event Producer?

Selecting the right event production partner can make the difference between an event that merely happens and one that becomes a cherished community tradition. Greater Vancouver Food Trucks stands apart thanks to our:

This regional expertise means we can help you create authentic experiences that resonate with local audiences while navigating municipal requirements effortlessly.

Full-Spectrum Production Capabilities: Unlike vendors who handle just one aspect of your event, our team provides end-to-end production services.

We’ve carefully vetted these partners for reliability, quality, and professionalism—something one-off events simply don’t have the opportunity to do.

Turnkey Solutions That Save You Time: Our systems and processes have been refined through hundreds of successful events. From standardized site maps to proven scheduling templates, we’ve developed tools that streamline planning and execution, allowing you to focus on your other responsibilities while we handle the operational details.

Data-Driven Approach to Continuous Improvement: We don’t just execute events; we measure them. Our comprehensive post-event analysis provides valuable insights on attendance patterns, vendor performance, and customer satisfaction that help your event improve year after year.

Creativity Backed by Practical Know-How: Our team brings both creative vision and practical execution skills to your event. We can help develop unique concepts while ensuring they’re grounded in logistical reality—creating memorable experiences that actually work in the real world.

Trusted by Industry Leaders: When organizations like Live Nation, Concord Pacific, and numerous municipalities repeatedly choose our team for their events, it speaks to the consistency and quality of our work.
