Wild West Music Fest. Meanwhile, trucks permitted with Pinal County permit can operate at events, private properties and in other county jurisdictions without necessarily needing the extra city permit. Many operators don’t see added value in getting both. So far in 2025, new Pinal County permits with Maricopa addresses include Filiberto’s Mexican Food, Authentic Dominican Food, El Antojito, Taqueria El Taco Loko, Phocopa, Boy Boy Boba and Mama Bear’s Mini Kitchen, each bringing unique menu offerings to the community.

The trend is clear: As county-issued permits climb, city-issued permits have dropped to zero. While food truck activity is growing across Pinal County, fewer operators are pursuing the additional city approval. A city permit is required for food trucks to participate in city- organized festivals on public property, such as Maricopa’s signature

BEFORE A FOOD TRUCK can receive a city permit in Maricopa, it must first pass Pinal County’s health inspection and permitting process. In Maricopa, 14 food trucks were licensed in 2022 and eight in 2023 — but none since. County permits, on the other hand, have surged: from two Maricopa businesses in 2020 to 18 last year and eight so far in 2025.
