Mississauga is moving ahead with a pilot project that will see food trucks set up at city parks.

In response to the growing trend of food trucks servicing the Greater Toronto and Hamilton Area (GTHA), Mississauga is looking to get in on the craze.

Beginning May 1, food trucks will be permitted at nine city parks during regular hours, from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. and continue until April 30, 2019.

“As a city, we must continue to grow and evolve with current trends and innovations,” said Paul Mitcham, commissioner of community services with the city.
