Jonathan from Xpresso Mobile Cafe's

Highly recommend Bella and the team that built my trailer. Very professional and the highest of quality. Using my trailer is so much easier then setting up the gazebo. Its professional and safer in all weather conditions. If you are going to get a trailer built, get it built by a professional, that can ensure that it is all compliant and meets all Australian standards.

Sheree from Leonella Pasta

I have had the pleasure of using Bella Manufacturing to build our Mobile Coffee Car. There was no hesitation in using the best food truck manufacturer in Australia and the combination of their creation, design and build process is nothing short of perfect. The final product is just as much a piece of art as it is a practical and effective mobile coffee unit. I would have no hesitation recommending them to anyone.
