Format & footprint

Each location is a vintage Airstream set up at a roadside or parking-lot site with outdoor seating, rather than a leased storefront.
The brand also offers catering and events, from treat bags to donuts made on-site to bringing the Airstream itself to weddings, school functions, fundraisers, and corporate events.
Its job listings include shift leads, managers, and vintage Airstream technicians, which suggests trailer upkeep is an ongoing part of operations.
The license request form asks whether applicants have $300,000 or more in liquid assets and whether they have been involved in a franchise before.
