Built the Hard Way - By Someone Who Actually Builds
Alamo Food Trailers wasn’t started in a boardroom. After losing his job during COVID, founder Surge Santa Cruz bet on himself — no investors, no big shop, no safety net — and built his first food trailer by hand in his backyard.
That meant learning all of it: welding and fabrication, electrical and plumbing, propane systems and venting. When you order a custom trailer from Alamo, you’re working with someone who understands every system in it because he’s built them himself — not a sales rep flipping units made overseas. And wherever you are in Texas, we deliver.

Why Build With Alamo
Real Trade Skill.
Every trailer is built by someone who welds, wires, and plumbs it himself — fewer shortcuts, fewer problems later.
Code-Compliant by Design.
Built to pass inspection so you keep operating, not fighting the health department.
Repair-First Perspective.
We started by repairing other people’s trailers, so we know exactly what fails and why — and build to avoid it.
Statewide Delivery.
Wherever you’re launching in Texas, we bring the trailer to you.
