New York City is getting a fleet of eco-friendly food carts
Street food in New York City is about to step into the future. Later this month, a fleet of 500 eco-friendly food carts will roll out into the city, as part of a pilot program to help vendors prepare cleaner food and reduce air pollution.
The program is being launched by the city and MOVE Systems, a local startup aimed at providing alternative energy sources for mobile food businesses. In an official statement, City Council Speaker Melissa Mark-Viverito said, “Small business owners like food cart vendors, are the backbone of New York City’s economy and the fabric of our neighborhoods. I look forward to seeing the results of this pilot and thank MOVE Systems for this important effort.”
