The problem

Buddha’s Spot relied solely on Facebook for their online presence, which limited how effectively they could showcase their menu, share food truck details, and engage with customers. Without a dedicated website, they lacked a centralized, professional space to represent their brand and connect with a broader audience.

The Solution

I designed a vibrant, mobile-friendly landing page that extends their existing branding and brings their food truck experience online. The site features an easy-to-navigate menu, an engaging about section, contact info, and real-time updates to better connect with customers and strengthen their digital presence.

Overview

Buddha's Spot was a popular Mexican food truck on the west side of Grand Rapids, MI. For menu and location updates, they were using a Facebook page which had a following of close to 1000 users. Looking for a branded approach, they requested a website that was professional, and matched the tone of their vibrant food truck. I decided that a landing page composed of the menu, reviews, about, and contact information would be the best approach. The page design incorporated the green, orange, and yellow colors present on the food truck, and fonts were chosen that reciprocated the identity of the business as quality with flare.
