“I started the food truck business in the evening because after the cafeteria closed, so they didn't have to walk so far.”
— Dave · Diversified
◆ Our Story

Since 2004. One Truck. A Whole Community.

Dave began catering for Howard schools in 2004, then brought the food truck out in the evenings to give students a closer option after the cafeteria closed. From freshman move-in to graduation, generations of students have grown up with Diversified.

Today we serve well beyond the yard, catering events and feeding neighbors all across the DMV. Same recipe for success: good food, fair prices, and people who keep coming back.
