Converting a Sprinter Van into a Food Truck

Published on October 20th, 2019

At Apollo Custom Manufacturing, we've converted Mercedes-Benz vans into full service food trucks, coffee trucks, and bakeries.  The Sprinter and Metris vehicles are great compact platforms to get your own food truck converted by Apollo.  We've partnered up with local Mercedes-Benz van specialists at, Mercedes-Benz Vans - Vancouver Island to help our customers pick the right van for their needs.

The Metris

The Metris is a smaller option from Mercedes-Benz, which was a great option to build a mobile coffee shop in the back to be able to deliver coffee to crowded metropolitan cities.  Even with this small platform, we were able to get a Cummins Onan generator, sink, full espresso station, with custom built cabinets, all tucked inside.

The Sprinter Van

The Classic Sprinter van from Mercedes-Benz is a real workhorse, with many different sizes and configurations, you'll be able to choose the right one for your needs.  Since we build all our cabinets and countertops in-house, we can make use of every inch available inside these vans.  The big limitation comes from the appliances you choose to have inside your van, so plan accordingly on how much food prep you'll be doing inside the Sprinter vans.

Height is definitely an advantage with these Sprinter vans. You will be able to work comfortably inside your van standing up, with room for us to install rooftop ventilation equipment to keep the air clean. Download Sample Floor Plan
