Launching in Raleigh-Durham, NC — join the waitlist and be first
Kahvelo — Coming to Raleigh

The Triangle's food truck scene is too good to be managed over text.

Raleigh-Durham was named a top food truck city by Food & Wine. Kahvelo gives Triangle venues a professional scheduling system — and gives food truck operators a direct path to open venue slots. Free for trucks. Always.

Free for food trucks. Always. No per-booking fees. Confirmed bookings locked.
Built for Raleigh

For Raleigh venues and food trucks.

Kahvelo replaces the chaotic mix of texts, DMs, and spreadsheets with a professional scheduling system — purpose-built for the venue-truck relationship.

For Raleigh venues

Give your Glenwood South venue a real booking system.

The Research Triangle's tech economy means venue owners are already comfortable with software. Kahvelo brings that same professionalism to food truck scheduling — confirmed bookings, a live public calendar, and a searchable operator directory.

  • Live public schedule page your customers will follow
  • Browse Triangle food trucks by cuisine and availability
  • Pre-approve your regulars for direct slot booking
  • No per-booking fees on any plan
For Raleigh food trucks

  • Browse open slots at Glenwood South, Five Points, and Durham venues
  • Professional profile and visual menu — built to impress venue owners
  • Slot alerts when a Triangle venue posts an opening
  • Centralized booking inbox for all your Triangle venues
  • Free forever — no commissions on any booking
The problem we’re solving

The Raleigh booking problem is the same everywhere.

Texts, DMs, spreadsheets — and still trucks don’t show up. Kahvelo fixes the whole system.

Raleigh venue owners say…

“I confirmed a truck via DM and they ghosted me the day of the event.”

Informal bookings have no accountability. Last-minute cancellations hurt your reputation with customers.

“I want to expand my truck rotation but I don't know who's looking for slots.”

Discovery is entirely word-of-mouth. There's no searchable directory of Triangle operators.

“My booking history is scattered across my Instagram DMs.”

Nothing centralized. No record of past bookings, no system for future ones.

Raleigh food trucks say…

“I know venues in Glenwood South have open Fridays but can't find out which ones.”

Slot availability is invisible. You can only find out by cold-messaging and hoping someone responds.

“Most of my outreach gets ignored. I don't know who's actually looking.”

Without knowing which venues are actively seeking trucks, all outreach is a guess.

“I lose bookings to trucks with better online presence, not better food.”

A polished profile wins the booking. An informal Instagram page loses it.
